Quiet Christmas Eve

Merry Christmas to all and to all a good night.

Silent Snowy Sunday

I Love Instagram!

Over the summer I downloaded the Instagram app for my iPhone, an app that I would never be without now.

  Instagram is a revelation to my photo taking.  I have often thought I took a pretty good pic but I've never been able to afford a fancy camera and I don't have the knowledge to produce photos with filters and effects.
  Instagram has helped me to do that and it's so easy to do.  I now have a whole album of instagram pics.  Here's a selection of my favourites.

I'm partial to a lovely sunset...

Anyone for tea?

The architecture of Wembley Stadium always makes for a good photo.

Rainbows are always inspirational

A rainbow in a cloud - beautiful

And then there are some random pictures...
