Cee’s Fun Foto Challenge: Trees

As Lovely As A Tree

I think that I shall never see  
A poem lovely as a tree.  

Trees by Joyce Kilmer

I haven’t managed to join in any of Cee’s Challenges for a couple of weeks. I never seem to be ready with a post in time but this week I am determined even if it has to be photos from the archives like this one of my beloved apple tree.

Cee’s Fun Foto Challenge: Close-Ups of Flowers

Flowers

It’s mid-winter here and I didn’t know if I’d be able to find any flowers to photograph in my garden but guess what? The first jonquils are out!

My King Alfred daffodils are not far away from flowering either.

I do have a lot of daisies and although they are considered weeds I’ve always been fond of them. The pansies are about the only other thing still flowering.

Cee’s Fun Foto Challenge: 5+ Items

Five Plus

I misread Cee’s Challenge post and thought I needed photos containing only five items. There are six items in this first photo but five of them are vintage wooden cats.

A stack of five doll books.
Five vintage kitchen canisters
Five mugs with bird pictures.
Five bobbins

Cee’s Fun Foto Challenge: 3 Items or the Number 3

Threes

This week I decided to use (mostly) pictures of birds. I was looking through my archive searching the number three and found I had pictures of three ducks and three goldfinches so I decided to see if I had any other groups of three birds. I admit to cheating a bit with the Galahs.

Two of my favourite subjects for this week’s challenge, anything to do with ships and the waterfront and a couple of trains.

The Loneliest Number

Here are a few things I found in my archives that feature the number one.

Signage at Errol Flynn Reserve,
A lot of the Geeveston story is about the forests.

A single, but very large, chair.

I found this chair in a waiting area at Brooke St Pier.
