That my days have been a dream;
Yet if hope has flown away
In a night, or in a day,
In a vision, or in none,
Is it therefore the less gone?..." E. A. Poe
It was Diwali yesterday and I made a Rangoli:
Niamh
Your photos are so bright and clear! I love colourful autumn pictures and your sunset!
Snowqueen
Your flowers with a butterfly bring smell of spring when I look at them!

AdoreroDio
Nice shot, I love it! Can you enlarge the picture?
DANSBIRD

A few photos of the strange statues on the cascade at Chatsworth from a couple of weeks ago. Weird things. Click on the image to make it bigger, I couldn't upload it fully because it was massive?
Slide show if it:

Amazing.
Great photo. Reminds me of Alfred Hitchcock's - "The Birds"
They look like Grackels
The sculptures are unusual, but the bread had me drooling this morning.A few photos of the strange statues on the cascade at Chatsworth from a couple of weeks ago. Weird things. Click on the image to make it bigger, I couldn't upload it fully because it was massive?
My wonderful bread.
Amazing.
Please describe the bread in the photo I reposted above.
Is that cheese on top?
Gilliatt
Ha, ha, excellent Gilliatt, thanks for the positives on my bread, I'm like a proud parent. Yes the bread rolls have cheese on the top and a little cheese and onion inside - I thought I would make half a dozen of those. They tasted really good, especially warm fresh from the oven. I took one to work and they still tasted great the next day (my daughter had one for lunch too, with a little salad). When I got back they others had been eaten. I'm going to make some more at the weekend I think, maybe add a bit more cheese and perhaps have a few chives in there as well, we'll see.The sculptures are unusual, but the bread had me drooling this morning.

I made some plain breadcakes (bread rolls, we call them breadcakes up north!) and they went down a treat as well, so yummy, slightly crisp on the outside, but nice fluffy on the inside, and fresh, so fresh.
My small loaves have been coming out beautifully as you can see, so rustic and perfect. However, I can't seem to crack the wholemeal at the moment, it is a lot heavier and harder to rise, but the white bread is so simple to do with the recipe I am using - why not have a go this weekend and have perfect bread? Only 10 minutes relaxing kneading required. I think I ranted about it and posted a link to it the other day, but here it is again:

Think I'm going to watch my bread video again before I go to bed. Just one more time...
It finally snowed today.

Thanks Virgil.
Thats an amazing shot.Here is a recent picture I took when my roommate threw a log in the lake so I could take cool splash photos...

It seems a little late now, but I took some pictures as I was walking around of the Autumn colours. It snowed last night as well.

This is a view of Coventry from the West. You can just make out the Cathedral Spire. If I go to work on the bus, then this is my view. It's so flat in the distance it reminds me of the seaside.

Diwali, is a festival of lights. It's a five day festival, where on the last day we burst crackers in the evening, prepare delicacies, make rangolis, light diya, etc. This rangoli is made using flowers and colours.
Paulclem,
Wonderful colors. I suppose the trees are now covered in snow from the recent storm (?)
Is that your dog?
Thanks for sharing.
Gilliatt
Hi Gilliatt and thanks.
Yes it's a bit snowy at the moment. That is my dog. I wrote a short piece about him here.

Thanks Olga it's so nice of you.
Great pictures Paulclem.
Here are few photos I took last year.
Nice pictures Snowqueen. Your one with the birds on a branch is very good. It's the kind of pic I'd like to draw or paint - though I don't draw or paint at the moment. (One day I might go to a class).
