A new year, a new photography thread! Thanks to everyone who's participated in these threads, whether as a photographic contributor, a commenter, or as someone who just pops in from time to time to admire the latest offerings. The Soul Source photography thread now enters its sixth year (well, technically it started life in April of 2013, but who cares?), which I think is amazing.

As I mentioned in the last post of the 2018 thread, its longevity is entirely down to you and your continued involvement, so thank you one and all for making this a real highlight for so long. Cheers, and here's to another photo-filled year!

I've got just the cement mixer bowl and the cow to supply the milk. Just need a spoon big enough and we sorted.  

 Red Kite. I was lucky enough to see it land on a old fence post

Me love breakfast, elevenses, lunch, afternoon tea, dinner, supper and midnight feasts..... Cornflakes, cornflake biscuit, cornflake soup, cornflake cake, cornflake casserole, cornflake lasagne, cornflake pizza, cornflakes on toast.   I remember a fab pud at school. Cornflakes in a pastry case with jam at the bottom....the cornflakes were held together with some sort of cornflake glue.   

I want some cornflakes now.....and I've only got Shreddies 😱

It's that time of year again as we respectfully remember the fallen who gave there all for us.

Autumnal colours , not to match the weather which is so wet and miserable again.  Let's all return to the spring and summer.  Time machine anyone  😄

How could I forget such a colourful bird coming into and 🤔lighting up my life on this miserable wet night 😊

The sight that greeted me as I opened the curtains yesterday morning,  had to use my phone , living here for over thirty years I've learnt conditions change very quickly, two minutes later the sky colour had changed and the birds were gone, the sky was actually a deeper more striking red

had a great family holiday there over the summer, our staffy loved the hikes, wonderful part of the world and nice photo, thanks

Lucky enough to accidentally stumble across this conglomerate of mud monsters in the midst of a community meeting.   Even luckier that the King was in residence!  As you can see, some were startled and some were extremely annoyed but I managed to get this rare shot before they all disappeared underground again.

Morecambe bay sunset 

Oh to be there this evening.  Can't wait to return . Maybe lucky enough to actually see the mythical Morecambe mud monsters  😁. You never know., a lovely friend of mine has actually photographed them. If I'm extremely lucky she may even take me to the obviously very secret place.  😁

A couple of sunset photos. First is from a lookout spot in the flinders where i tried to get a mirror image in the wine glass. The second is from the Prairie Hotel in Parachina, famous for its feral meals

One from my archives... Seen on the island of Kos when we were there for a couple of weeks some years back. 

As you can see from the background, 'Funny Land' was nothing but a bit of disused industrial land. Not much funny about that!
