I’ve joined in with the worldwide blogging community take part in a WordPress course called Blogging 101. The aim of this course is to encourage/enthuse/energize/educate participants and basically improve our blogging. So far I’m enthused, energized, encouraged and teetering on the brink of being educated. (As a colleague of mine used to say, “Miracles take a little longer”).
Today’s challenge (yes, its a daily exercise) is to produce something with an element in it that is new to me.
What’s new about today’s blog is that I am committing myself to a series called “Throwback Thursdays”. My idea being to look back at old photographs and see what they bring to mind. And I intend to will publish one every Thursday. I decided on the title because both words begin with ‘th” and a bit of alliteration never goes wrong.
Today’s picture was taken a few years ago and I’ve chosen it because I am so looking forward to Springtime:

I wish I could follow you directly on wordpress but maybe it is deactivated or something. Your pictures are great either way 😉

Thank you. I do enjoy my photography. WordPress doesn’t host my site so that’s why following might be done differently. I’m certainly impressed by your blog. And I love the name!!

Good luck with your Thursday blog. A tough one to stick to but a nice challenge.

Thanks very much. Yes, it seemed a good idea at the time, AND I’ve got to week 2 . Watch this space for week 52. LOL

I’m very intrigued by your throwback Thursdays because I too have thought of doing this. As a blogger, I have many good ideas that for whatever reason, I can’t get them posted. I thought it would give me a great reason to write them anyway. Love the image. I love to take photos too, and use my own images on my site, but most of mine are quick shots.

Thanks. I think this was taken at MartinMere WWT reserve a few years ago.

Thanks. Yes, I remember too that he was the brave one who ventured away from Mum to have a look at a strange human with a camera.
