It’s Share Six blog circle time again. These months seem to fly by with increasingly more speed!

This month we’re looking at {Colour} or {Color} (depending on your nationality and/or location). It’s such a great theme for this time of year, and I hope it helps you, as it does for me on this unusually grey day, to look beyond the winter skies, the snow and the ice. Whether you focus on a multitude of colour or a single colour pop, the possibilities are endless. I can’t wait to be cheered through the depths of winter by the colourful happiness that will flood the Share Six FB wall and IG feed!

My images this month were all taken in January: a trip to New York City, my favourite flowers, a sunrise and a sunset. That makes up a little bit of everything and they cover a little bit of everything colourful too: some abstract, some less so; some pop, some mishmash, some gentle softness of blush. What type of colour is your favourite?

The colour of Kate Spade’s window display immediately caught my attention, but the reflection of the New York skyline in the window against their gift wrap skyline, made me stop and look a while longer.

A colour theme wouldn’t be complete without a little natural monotone:

Yet again, yes I know, there were more than six. What can I say? I’m an indecisive rule-breaker!

Happy New Year everyone! This is my first blog post of 2018 so I want to take a second to say thank you for following me into another year. I wish you all a year that brings both great happiness and good health.

As I sit here on New Year’s Day under a cosy blanket, looking out the window at a blue sky and a blanket of snow, I cannot help but reflect on how far we have come this year. From the blistering heat of the Sonoran Desert to the Winter wonderland of New England, 2017 was a year of great change and climate extremes (a swing of 131F in fact).

This month at Share Six we’re looking at {Winter Light}. Let me tell you, this winter looks decidedly different to our winters in Arizona! I am completely and utterly in love with the soft golden tones of a cold northern winter in the forest:

My look at {winter light} wouldn’t be complete without my favourite image of our Christmas tree:
