Onion Harvest, Swans and A Full Moon Rising

30 Aug

1   We’ve harvested all the onions and they’re drying out ready to plait up and store.

2   We went to Truro this evening and had a walk by the river before going for a meal. I love this photo of the swans on the  river as they have both just lifted their beaks out of the water and left concentric ripples behind.

3   As we left Bustopher Jones wine bar, the very beautiful full moon was rising in a pale pink twilight sky.

    It’s the swans that got me on this post. Reminded me very much of Perth, Western Australia. They were famous for their swans – a tourist attraction, to be sure.

    You know, I’ve just had a loooong, looong week of work, & I come by here on aFriday night and I see you have captured the beauty of each and every day this week while I’ve been stressing,

    and you inspire me.

    🙂

      I hope you have a peaceful and relaxing weekend 🙂

      Love to you xx

      It was and it got even better to the naked eye but I don’t have the right equipment to photograph at night. 🙂

      Thank you for calling in and commenting. 🙂
