The Garbage And The Flowers

A morning ramble brought this unexpected series of pictures......


          ......an old Morris van in someone's driveway....



                                                    .......foxgloves by the garden fence.....



                                .....ox-eye daisies on the roadside....



                                                                       .....a discarded Guinness can.....



                        .....overgrown hedgerow.....



                                                                           ......a little rose peeping through....



                                              ........cigarette packet....silver and gold.....



                                                          .....the sunlight shining through the green.....



                            ......the mural in the underpass.....



                                                                            ......what say you, Mr Rabbit?

Take care.

  2. Lucky you to have a wild rose out John - my favourite flower and no where near out up here. Good set of photographs - you certainly have an eye for the details of life.

  7. What a lovely series, John. (Well, maybe not the mural in the underpass.)

    You are right. Marcelle and Joe were charming people and a lot of fun to spend time with.

  10. The old Morris van looks expectantly through the fence, hoping for an outing. The bunny is happy. He's already out. Lovely wild rose.

  11. What delightful tidbits from the mundane. The moment you gave focus on them, they look having started shining. I like the William-Morris-like patterns of leaves and Peter Rabbit.

  13. There are some really lovely photos here John - I never thought that anyone would make a discarded Guiness can look attractive:) Don't like the mural though, it's an art form that simply doesn't appeal to me - sorry!
