It’s been a week of pirates, fairy potions and lavender. Combined with capturing the best of London while walking to or from the office.
Welcome to Project 365: Week #29.
Day 195
This is POD after flowers for her fairy potion! It was an interesting mix of petals, grass and leaves plus a little red colouring. Astounding how tall she looks here.
After the fairies had been fed it was time for some pirate fun. POD is making a strange face here but at least she’s looking at the camera (first time for everything!).
Day 196
Having recently visited Hitchin Lavender Farm, Monday saw us venture to Mayfield Lavender in Surrey. POD refused to stand in the lavender initially but we got there in the end.
You don’t see any grasshoppers for months then two come along in the same day! This little fella was so difficult to photograph given the position he was in but great macro practice.
Standing under the London Eye before work was just the best. Other than a few joggers there was hardly a soul on the Southbank, such a contrast to when I walked past last week.
Walking to Waterloo from Farringdon is far more preferable than the tube especially when it’s been so warm. These phone boxes are located just off Bow Street not far from the Royal Opera House.
I spotted this pretty bicycle outside the Holborn Dining Room not far from Chancery Lane.
POD has a Summer party next weekend (her birthday is on Christmas Day) so we’ve been in the garden tidying. We’re hopeful the weather will hold out so we can have a BBQ.
I love the diversity of the shots.
Beautiful images
The photo of POD in the eyepatch is stunning and how you managed to keep a grasshopper that still is amazing!
You just have had to hold your breath to get that close and have the grasshopper stay so still!
Beautiful photos as always, that grasshopper is a beauty. Love POD’s pirate face although she looks really sad #365
Some lovely pictures. I love the ones of the London Eye it’s great seeing it from a different perspective
Gorgeous as always and not a loom band in sight.
The picture in the lavender is stunning! I agree POD does look tall on the first picture. As always beautiful photographs x #project365
As always – lovely photos. I can’t get over how different Poppy seems in the black and white one x
Absolutely stunning summary of your week! Love every shot!
Your photos are stunning. The colours just leap out of the page. You really could have these hanging on any living room wall!
Oh the photo of POD as a pirate is really stunning! I love the lavender photo too, I recently found a lavender farm near me and it is such a beautiful place to spend time.
Gorgeous flower shot and I love the old telephone boxes. That doesn’t look like POD in the second photo at all. She looks really grown up there.
What a gorgeous collection of photos, as usual! I love he one of Pirate Pod looking at the camera. Her expression is fabulous. x
Beautiful photos – the shot of Pod in the lavendar field just breathtaking.
