Joining others in this Sunday Selection mix of photo-dumps.
From The Highriseamong others.
I'm just going to throw randoms out here today. I was looking through some old albums (so many, lord, so many) and selected some that bring me joy with brief descriptions
This was the glorious view from the deck of my last house. I could watch the fishing boats and seals from my front door.
I loved photographing my knitting on old boats and docks.
I must have hundred of pictures of sunsets from my deck at the house.
And for those who wonder about such things - here is a fishing boat posing nicely between icebergs (melting rapidly)
I really like the fishing boat between the ice bergs. Your knitting is very nice too, a knee rug?
ReplyDeleteYes, though we call them afghans or sofa blankets. Knee rugs are smaller.

Like Jesus parting the sea, so was the iceberg was parted to allow passage to the trawler. It's a great photo.
ReplyDeleteThanks Andrew.

The final two photos were a Wow for me, especially the fishing boat cruising through the melting glaciers!
ReplyDeleteI was living in a fishing village so I was very fortunate to be in a kind of photographing heaven.

What beautiful memories you’ve captured! The image of Ansa with the wild irises sounds peaceful and full of life, and the view from your house deck must have been something to treasure daily. I can imagine how many sunsets you’ve enjoyed watching from that vantage point! The fishing boat with the melting icebergs is a striking image—such a snapshot of nature’s impermanence.
ReplyDeleteI just shared a new post; let me know what you think. Have a lovely weekend ahead.
Thank you Melody, I will check your post!

Gosh Mandy, you should clean up your blog. Cluttered with huge ads and your posts have such tiny print I can't read them.

I've had too many relatives passing away recently.
ReplyDeleteIt's made me realise I don't have an infinite number of years to clear my clutter, so two large heavy bags of "stuff" have gone.
Including a selection of old photos that have always made me sad. x
I do wonder about all my old photos. The best I have framed but I think to myself after I'm gone, what odds? Who will care about them? Cataloguing would be a waste of time. I need to get cracking on my excess stuff too.

Wonderful photos! Loved them all, but the one of Ansa does stand out!
ReplyDeleteAs for parting with stuff, I'm older than you and have a houseful of (well, years and years of accumulating). Must get cracking too since having made it a New Year's commitment am already a bit late!
It takes a lot of energy Marge and mine isn't shall I say optimal. Today I filled a large plastic bag with my collection of knapsacks and sheets I don't like and I'm worn out.

That last one is a jaw-dropper!
ReplyDeleteYou must have hated to leave that house, and that view. Such beauty, right there out your door.
I did, GS, but I had a bad fall on the ice (hurt my back) and my darling dog, my protector, died, and it was time. It was a large property (over 7 acres with a house and cabin and outbuildings) so a lot to maintain with an unforgiving body. I loved my years there.
