Project 365: Week #24

Aside from photographing POD, this has been the week for looking up and capturing what’s above. Photographs of buildings never appear as symmetrical as I’d like but working in London more frequently will no doubt rectify that. There’s a lack of blooms this week but the wonderful blue skies make up for it!

Welcome to Project 365: Week #24.

Day 160 

We ventured into Guildford town centre today as POD needed shoes. We were hoping to take the towpath route but it remains closed after the storm damage – open soon hopefully. There were a few delights to be found in town though like this building

and the bell above the cobbled high street.

Day 161 

POD did brilliantly at gymnastics but her listening ears were on sabbatical. After seeing the doctor about her eczema, she was impeccably behaved in the garden. The two of us set off to go (pretend) camping, using this flower as a torch, before reading Mr Men books in her tent.

Day 162 

In London all day today. I took this photograph with my mobile at Waterloo station while waiting for a train.

Day 163 

Working from home today. Spotted one of these pretty humbug-like snails nestled in a Red Hot Poker.

Day 164 

Another glorious day, another opportunity to look up – this time to capture the skies of London. This clock looked immense with it’s blue backdrop

PODcast - Clerkenwell Rd

as did this building. Both photographs were taken in Clerkenwell Road.

Day 165 

It’s not been a good week for POD going to sleep – or staying asleep for that matter. She’d normally be at nursery on Friday but she was at home today after her eczema kept her awake. Painting and bubbles were a great distraction

as was running off with Mummy’s lolly! This is the “I’m not doing anything wrong” face.

We’re in Sussex on Saturday so it’s a slightly shorter one this week. What have you been up to?

    Some beautiful building shots. I love the one of the station. The photo of POD eating the lolly is very cute, she has a proper cheeky look on her face! I hope her eczema is settling down again now.

    Love the photo at Waterloo station – stunning. Painting and bubbles are always a good distraction, and the cheeky face after stealing your ice lolly is just gorgeous. #365

    Kitty is sat here looking at these with me, the high pitched ‘POPPPPYYYYY’ in my ear was a bit hardcore!
    Looks like you have had a busy week – enjoy Sussex xx

    I love the photo at waterloo station, brilliant view. I think the blowing bubbles photo has to be my favourite though, hope you have a fab time whatever you are doing today x

    Stunning pics as always.

  • Mary @ Over 40 and a Mum to One June 14, 2014 at 7:21 pm

    I love that 164 photo – looks like a cross stitch sky with those vapour trails #365

  • Angela Spicer June 14, 2014 at 7:21 pm

    I love where the snail was hiding

  • Actually Mummy... June 14, 2014 at 7:40 pm

    I do like taking shots of buildings, and train stations are always good subjects. Love POD’s expression eating the lolly 🙂

  • Sarah MumofThree World June 14, 2014 at 9:39 pm

    Love the ‘I’m not doing anything wrong’ face! Your photos of buildings are fantastic.

  • Notmyyearoff June 14, 2014 at 10:56 pm

    Hehe love Pods “not doing anything” face. Little Z is a stickler for ice lollies and will gladly run away with someone elses if needs be. That snail she’ll is beatiful and looks brilliant contrasted against the yellow.

  • Jaime Oliver June 15, 2014 at 2:17 am

    awww honey i do hope POD’s eczema settles down soon! stunning photos Charly as usual xx

  • Helen C June 15, 2014 at 11:01 am

    I love the snail photo, it does look pretty (even if they are completely demolishing my plants at the moment!)

  • Kirsty Hijacked By Twins June 15, 2014 at 12:21 pm

    Lovely pictures! You don’t usually see snails in Rod Hot Pokers! I love the bubbles picture of POD. Have a lovely day x #BetterPhotosProject

  • Coombemill June 15, 2014 at 12:51 pm

    The gorgeous clear skies make every photo stunning

  • Sara (@mumturnedmom) June 15, 2014 at 2:54 pm

    Gorgeous photos of buildings, lovely against the blue sky. Love the shot of the snail in the red hot poker and the bubble photo is lovely. POD does have a ‘who me?’ face in the last photo 🙂

  • brinabird and son June 15, 2014 at 9:58 pm

    Britain really can have beautiful dramatic skies so it does pay to look up. I like your focus points on the buildings. It captures their character so well.
