Photos from my Nokia Lumia 530 phone from my dog walks this week.

American sycamore leaves just hang on and on.

golden leaves line the road under the oak

this wattle tree is bursting with yellow buds

at the end of the service road, the footbridge is on the left, unseen

Winter begins here tomorrow, with zero night temperatures (and under, no doubt) and a top of about 13 C. Brrrrrrrr. I envy those of you looking at the arrival of hot weather.  The rest of us, stay warm!

This time I’m committing to the Index-Card-a-Day Challenge over the next two months. Run by Daisy Yellow Art, it seems more about the process than the result.

Since I’ve been itching to get back into some regular creative activity on a visual format, I think this will suit me perfectly.  I can get out all those abandoned scrap-booking supplies, poster paints, and pens. Gee, I might even have to go buy new stuff!

I’m going to follow the daily prompts, and have each card relate to my fantasy novel. I think it will help deepen my world building, since I will have to think about the things I wouldn’t have thought of yet.

How far do you think I will get? Starts tomorrow, though most people have already warmed up with their title card. [sigh]

And, by the way, do not be surprised if you see a theme change on here soon – the lighter text colour is really beginning to annoy me.

I’m keeping away from the internet until late afternoon. I daresay James Joyce had other distractions to contend with. 😉
