Thursday Doors – Feeling A Little Blue
On this photo theme for Thursday Doors I can see a distinct theme going on. Blue doors are in! This was taken in Fuerteventura, I didn’t even think of Thursday Doors when I took it.

CFFC Shadows
This is a thoroughly interesting subject, shadows are the thing you often try to avoid when taking photographs, yet shadows can make a photo more interesting. CFFC. I have also covered this topic before … Shadows. This was an accidental shadow. This one very deliberate. This one too, the shadows added to the mood. Also …
Shadow Shot
What interesting long shadows in my shadow shot photograph. I thought I’d join in the fun with Magical Mystical Teacher’s Photo Challenge.

It’s All About Nature CB&W
I have a lot of nature photographs in my camera roll. One of my favourite topics is the weather, and the sea. For CB&W challenge, I’d like to share these sea photos with you. The rough waves are magnificent in Fuerteventura. In contrast here’s a nice calm beach in Portugal. A rainbow over the water …
