February 11th – My Birthday and World Happy Day

Saturday 1485 – February 11th 2012

Last weeks post It’s a Big Issue was pretty serious and as this Saturday was both my Birthday and World Happy Day  ( which you can read about on the Action For Happiness website here  ) I thought I’d just write about the joyful day I had today.

Those who have been following  this blog for a while will know that photography is one of the things that makes me VERY happy and today was filled with that.  I was out most of the day  ( with a little interlude at my daughter’s ) tramping around fields in the snow.

After years of saying how much I hate snow, this year I have decided I love it ! Well I do when we get the sort of snow we have at the moment which is powdery and dry.

So not many words from me for once.. ( try not to sigh with relief quite so loudly! )… here are a few photos combining my love of light, trees and now snow too.

 

My gorgeous weeping willow tree at 7.30 a.m when it was minus 12 !

12 Feb update -Ziggyshortcrust liked the tree above and it gave her inspiration for one of her Five Minute Faces … you can see the Tree Elf inspired by this tree here

I love the sharing blogosphere

I’ll be posting more snowy scenes on my photography blog here –  Photomania   

The day was rounded off with a trip to the theatre with 2 friends of mine. We saw the VERY bawdy but terrific Canterbury Tales so I’ll leave you with a couple of photos from that – I decided not to post the one where a cast member sticks his bare bottom out of a window !!!!!

 Saturday girl is off to catch up on all her favourite blogs – Goodbye ’til next week..

P.S - The links seem to be a bit Iffy this week. I needed to place my curser way underneath the actual link to open the one I wanted… try that if they don’t seem to work for you. Thanks
