Mixing Work and Play



One of the personal projects I'm working on at the moment is a Wildflower Series.  More to come on that later, but today I wanted to showcase this little guy I spotted while out shooting.

He was busy scouting around on the post I was using to brace myself when I spotted him.  We both paused for a moment, taking time out of work to play.  I took one image of him and then he graciously lifted his head up.  I'm certain he was posing - it had nothing to do with the big black lens suddenly dominating his world...

Celebrating People

I don't normally post on a Sunday, but I thought this one was appropriate for the Lord's Sabbath.

There's so much of nastiness, unkindness and uncertainty in our world today that it's truly heartwarming to see regular people doing simple, random acts of kindness.

This kind of love and concern for those around us - as well as for our animal friends - helps us to see that it's not hard to make a real difference in someone's life.  And what may be small to us as a giver can be monumental to the person receiving.

It doesn't take a fancy-dancy organisation or programme, it just takes love.  Share your humanity with those around you.
