PICTURE THIS #439 ~ TREES

Congratulations, Baz, for the beautiful banner image. Love the picture in every way.... 
Good theme, Heidi!!

Many kids who stop making use of soothers, go to a Lisbon park at which they say farewell to their soothers by hanging them from  a  cork tree.

Double congratulations to Mitch! Yes, for the banner image and for the theme, both of which I really like... Windows are the eyes to houses.... we would feel, without them, miserable indoors, wouldn't we? ...

Bored one evening, I took this picture. I'm facing out, the image of Tom is a reflection, I don't know what the blue on the right is.

Morning all.Thanks to Mitch for another great theme, and congrats to him also for this weeks header. I love windows so I have taken the theme literally and all my images are real windows in the everyday sense of the word, but I have tried to select unusual shots at the same time, I hope you like my choices. Have a great weekend.

Hi everyone, this is Mitch. I'll be hosting this week.  Before I get to the theme I just wanted to say thanks to everyone for responding so well to my message a couple of weeks ago about commenting. 

My theme this week is 'Windows'. I'll leave it up to you how you interpret it. I've gone for some less-obvious ones, along with a more traditional one.

1) Defender's View. This is how the occupants of Castell Carreg Cennen looked out on the world hundreds of years ago.

2) Abstract Window. A hand-painted window at an exhibition at the National Maritime Museum, Swansea. 

3) Nature's Window. I saw this sunlit bush through a hole in the sandstone formation, Valley of Fire, Nevada.

4) Broken Dreams. Taken at the Batsto Industrial Museum, New Jersey.

Picture This #437 ~ Simple

Afternoon all thanks to Benni for a challenging theme and Congrats to Heidi on the Header.

Here are my contributions for this weeks theme.

Simple is a word very much open to interpretation, I have attempted to show it in several different ways.

Have a great  Weekend.
