It's not new, you've probably all seen it before but it's still my favourite photo of my very favourite place - home.


I took this photo a couple of weeks after moving in here at about 7am. I was here alone at that point and went outside with a cup of coffee and a fag to enjoy the stillness and beauty - I had to run back in and get the camera and I'm so glad I did. Even though I see this view out of my living room window many times a day, in all it's many guises, this photo reminds me of the absolute joy I felt at having made the move up here.

This is where I like to sit as there are no flower beds or veggies or anything nearby to stop me from relaxing - I can't sit still if I see a weed or something that needs deadheading! Here it is all wild and I can just watch the life on the pond.

That's already reduced and I've already posted it on this forum in the past no probs and I have gone and reduced it AGAIN to the required 700 pixels but it still won't post direct - maybe John has reduced the amount of space that photos can take up on the forum????? Oh well you'll have to click on it!

Great to see a photo of the 'floating allotment' but you never told us it was a floating orchard as well!

Ok, I've set up the voting now, one vote each and it will stay open for a week.

In the event of a complete lack of votes or tie etc I'll ask someone else to choose the winners.

Happy voting and thanks for showing your spaces.

This has been a really hard one to vote on as I'd love to be invited to sit and dream in all of your favourite places, but I chose Red's cosy fireside cos I'm SERIOUSLY thinking of lighting my stove I'm so bl**** cold & it's only the 1st of Sept!

Red seems to have stormed into an early lead, but can she maintain it over the weekend oh the tension it's all too much

Great photos - wish I'd spotted this earlier (not really sure how I missed it to be honest!!) - anyway, I'll try and join in with the next one. Will it be a monthly thing? (even if there are no prizes)

Red, What happened, I go away for a few days and you've been beaten into second place. Seacuttercat storms into the lead out of nowhere.
