I must admit I've not felt much like blogging these past few days. I've kind of drafted a few posts that try to explain how I'm feeling about things but they just don't sound right. Perhaps later this week I will use my blog to offload a bit but for today let's just make it all about the photos! Here is a fantastic photo of something I've been craving and indeed scoffing a lot of recently. Mint Aero chocolate. Oh it is so good and to be honest this photo isn't helping matters. It just makes me want more. I've had half a big bar of it already today. So to the photographer I say... Brilliant work, just a little too brilliant. I might have to actually go look at something else or I'll end up feasting on the rest of my Aero bar which appears to be sitting winking at me.

Happy Easter everyone!! I hope you've had a lovely day and are in the middle of a great long weekend. We had a really nice day at a friend's house today. The weather held out - it looked like it was going to rain - so we had a great big barbecue and an Easter Egg hunt in the garden for all the children they had round.

This is a simple but really artistic Easter image. I love all the bright and fresh colours. Just perfect to share with you today.

'Magnolia' by Me

I love magnolia trees. They're just so pretty and also I feel nostalgic looking at them as we had one in the garden when I was a child. There's a gorgeous magnolia just round the corner from my house which I would love to photograph. I feel a bit funny about it though as it's obviously in someone's front garden and I'm not sure if the owners would appreciate me pointing my camera at their tree. Luckily though at Nymans the other day I spotted a magnolia tree in the grounds that was equally beautiful and I got to take loads of pictures. I think this one is my favourite. It shows off the pretty pink flowers and the bright blue sky whilst still being quite soft and subtle. I can always look at this on cold winter days and think of spring.

Well it's Good Friday today so to those of you having an extra long weekend, I hope you have a lovely relaxing time. The sun is shining here at the moment and there are chocolate eggs in the kitchen all ready for Sunday. Already that promises to be a good recipe for a nice few days.

Here are some cute little Easter bunnies for you to have a look at. Isn't this picture adorable? You can almost feel how soft these animals are just by looking a this image. I want a cuddle. I really have no desire to ever have a pet but if I did these cute little things could swing it for me. I rather like rabbits!

Happy Easter weekend everyone!

'Hong Kong Skyline' by Sprengben

Hong Kong Skyline, a photo by Sprengben [why not get a friend] on Flickr.

Seriously how amazing is this photo of Hong Kong? It's hard to find words to describe it other than simply "Wow"! You know I see when I look at it though? I see something along the lines of a whole host of skyscapers emerging from the depths of a volcano. Do you get what I'm on about? Those light really look like molten lava - well to me anyway. I'll be quiet now and let you enjoy this fantastic photo.

'Hats in a wheelbarrow' by Me

I had such a lovely time yesterday. As I mentioned before my husband decided to take the day off so we headed over to a National Trust place called Nymans in West Sussex for a spot of lunch and an afternoon stroll. I took lots of pictures including ones of us playing on the grass, the beautiful big house there, the flowers, blossoms and a stunning magnolia tree. I also took a few shots of some hats in a wheelbarrow - as you do! I love this as it's just so random but looks just so pretty in the spring sunshine.

'Beach Huts (Again!)' by ChrisDale

I can't believe it's April already. This year seems to be going so quickly. So far the month has started well. We got loads ticked off that 'To Do' list I was telling you about (and added some more jobs along the way). And today my husband took a spontaneous day off work which was fantastic as we got to have a lovely family day in the sun! I've been expecting bad weather all weekend so when yesterday and today were still sunny and nice they felt like bonus days!

Anyway, as is often the case at the moment, here is a photo which has nothing to do with what I've just been telling you about. I just wanted to share this as I think it's brilliant. Love the moodiness of it with the grey skies and the rather shabby looking beach huts. I am sure they look much more exciting on a sunny day but here they do look rather unloved and weatherbeaten. I also love how different they all are and how a couple of them look like sheds! I've realised they also look a bit out of place on grass rather on the actual beach. This just proves that I love beach huts and photos of them whatever state they're in and whatever the weather is like!
