Share Six Blog Circle – August 2018 | Water

The theme at Share Six this month is {Water}.

We’ve been contemplating the future a lot recently. We don’t know where we’ll be down the road, but what I do know is that I long to be by the sea. Or a big lake at the very least. The ocean, the waves and the sand between my toes fill my heart with joy, with peace and respite from the daily grind. I want to walk the dog on the beach every morning, come rain or shine. Even snow. I want big views and big sky. And light. Give me all the light reflecting off the water and let it shine!

I’m travelling this month so I’m pulling a few recent beachside favourites from my archives. Maybe they’ll give you some inspiration for your own dreams or better still, inspire you to submit your own images with us! Post your {Water} images on our Facebook page SHARE SIX or to our Instagram gallery by tagging #sharesix and #sharesix_water. A new theme will be posted on 6th September.

That was six at the seaside but I’m throwing in an extra special favourite too, just because…. water.

Inspired by Life Blog Circle | June 365

It’s time again to look back at my images from last month: this is June.

I am officially half way through this current 365!

I remember thinking at the time the whole of June felt like a constant and monotonous countdown, waiting for the last day of school and for the summer to finally begin. It doesn’t seem right that we wish away these days by dreaming about tomorrow or tomorrow’s tomorrow even though there are more exciting days on the horizon. There is beauty and joy to be found in every day, so long as we take the time to appreciate it. I was obviously feeling the *blah* of the waiting and of the daily grind because it was clearly reflected through many days of (frankly, boring) images. But blah does not make the cut, so this gallery is smaller than others. I shall endeavour to better my attitude and my images for July, I promise!

So here is June (minus that blah):
