August Break Day 5: Bookshelf

Not an easy prompt for me this one. I mean both that it isn’t easy for me to come up with a shot, but also that the idea of the prompt is distressing to me.

My reading these days is overwhelmingly via Kindle. I have one book open in my actual Kindle, another in the app on the phone, a third via the app on my tablet. I haven’t yet got around to setting up Kindle Reader on the new Windoze laptop… but I will.

Obviously this prompt required me to walk out into Rouans to find their book exchange. I did. I couldn’t find one! Can it really be one of the few French towns with no book swap!

August Break Day 4: Buttons

Today sees the start of the Andana course on Photography and Mindfulness…

…One thing that has come hard to me today was switching to Auto settings on my cameras. It goes against the grain, but I feel that it needs to be done if the idea is to focus on the moment, rather than the quality of the image.

August Break Day 3: Morning Light

So here is the morning light on the Vendéen Marais, La Route Du Sel, looking back towards Sallertaine as we set off on a circular walk.

Citrus, take 2

A less startling take on the Citrus prompt? A day late but the opportunity presented itself on our walk today.
