The Camera in my pocket: 2017

Think of the exercise ... (some people swear by a good half hour bounce on a mini trampoline to keep fit ) .. you'd get it for free!

 

I dread to think where your mind is going with this "M"!

 

'On reflection'.....this is a shot taken inside my house.
The doors in the foreground divide the dining room from the living room. The far window with seemingly one floral & one beige curtain is the odd bit (both curtains are in fact beige) and the floral pattern on the left hand curtain is a reflection of a camellia located in the garden behind the camera.

 

In a recent post I wrote: "The days are longer, the sun is higher, winter is loosening its frozen grip on the northeast, but winter is unpredictable here. That said, one can always hope."

Well, Mother Nature apparently took exception to my post so she dropped more than two feet of snow on us, and, gave us several days of bitterly cold temperatures, well below freezing, with no end in sight. Spring will be a little late this year I guess.

 

The first bluebell of 2017 (apologies for quality: phone camera)

 

I heard and felt the noise and grabbed my camera.
Sea King flypast, to be decommissioned at the end of the month

 

Amazing shots, strongy

 

Their decommissioning has come at the same time as the Lynx!!

 

They're decommissioning ... aftershave?

 

A visit to the very grey looking Rogie Falls on a grey day.







My worst nightmare below as I don't like heights and it bounced! I walked slowly across so it would reduce the bounce, got 2/3rds to the other side and froze to the spot clinging onto the hand rails. I made it though, and back eventually with legs like jelly!

 

Lovely photos @Sheal and I know what you mean about that bridge because when Mr Kandy took me to see the falls when we were up there on holiday with his mum and dad we all started walking across that rope bridge and he never told me what would happen as he knows I get frightheight and by the time we got to the middle with all the bouncing like you I was clinging to the edge of it and I don't even know if I got any photos of the falls as I was that scared. They all thought it funny but I didn't and I have never forgiven him for that

When he gets up I will show him the photos to see if he recognises where the photos were taken. PS,I was correct as he has just got up and after a little head scratching he soon remembered when I scrolled down the page

Thanks for sharing them with us
