I love how the gentleΒ motion of the water causes ripples that distort the reflections of the boat masts. Mylor Harbour, Cornwall.

I have lived in the UK for most of my life, but when young I definitely had wanderlust and even ended up living in South Africa for several years which was a wonderful experience. I now look forward to a long and leisurely retirement doing what I like most - gardening, photography, walking and travelling. View all posts by Heyjude

Very good Jude. The brief is dealt with, and we get a nice image too. Win-Win.
Regards as always, Pete. x
Struggled with this one; glad you like π
Pretty. βΊοΈ
It is. Thanks Lisa π
It looks like one of those hospital charts with vital signs, I don’t know what they’re called π
Haha, yes, I know what you mean…
Fabulous. The ripples off the movement are relaxing. π
I’ll do a proper post soon. It was late evening and the light was just perfect, water like glass.
All is well with the world when the lake is still and flat as glass. The call of a loon makes it even better. Sigh.
You Canadians often mention loons. I wish I knew what they are.
Give it a minute and a picture of the loon is shown. β€ β€
We lived by a lake when I was young. I loved the call of the loon. It sounded so lonely to me.
Oh, wow, Tess, this sent shivers down my spine. It is so mournful! At first I thought the sound was that of a wolf howling. No wonder loons are so special to you. Thank you for the link.
In the early morning and at night is when you hear them. I always stopped what I was doing just to listen. Glad I introduced you.
Such a beautiful bird too.
Very lovely x
Thank you π
Beautiful light and ripple reflections, a very contemplative, meditative image.
It was a lovely evening, so calm and still except for these ripples.
Love a bit of squiggly water, Jude π π
I always think of you when I am near a harbour π Did you like my walk (via a ferry)?
I did, Jude π I’m living in hope. You must have taken a few Cornish strolls π
Mostly through gardens, though I have a rather lovely cliff-top walk to a beach.
That’ll do nicely! In your own time, of course π π I don’t expect to get to WP much in the next week or so. Haven’t even started packing yet and am aflutter with nerves. If I’d spent as many hours learning Polish as I do on the blog I’d be competent by now π
I’m sure you will be fine Jo. It must feel like home by now? Are you meeting up with Meg? I remember you saying that you might have a plan.
They couldn’t be more welcoming, Jude, but still I feel like a spare part because of the language barrier. My mumbled phrases don’t cut it and the words wash all around me. You know I love words but I don’t seem able to capture these ones. π
Sadly Meg and I can’t make it work this trip. She thought about visiting Krakow but I don’t know exactly where I will be when, and by the time she arrives and settles in I’ll probably be in Belchatow. Maybe when she spends her year in Poland…
Ooh, is she thinking of doing that? Maybe we can persuade her to visit England and we could all meet together!! Although it would be difficult for any of us to get a word in edgewise as we all rabbit on so much π
I spotted it on Gilly’s and they were talking of a meeting. Can you imagine? π π
Well, I have not been to Poland yet… girls weekend away maybe?
Now that would be the blind leading the blind! I’d want to go somewhere in Poland I haven’t been because it’s mostly family time when I’m there. I was thinking of a UK meeting nearer than Penzance but with you and Gilly on the south coast and me with a yen for Dorset, and I haven’t been to Cornwall for the longest time… I think we’ll have to spin a coin. π Or wait till Meg’s sorted π

So peaceful and I love thinking about ripples in the water……makes me wonder how those ripples will keep rippling and those ripples will ripple and so on and so on……takes one small ripple to create huge change…..
Gosh Torrie, that’s one deep thought…
Surprised you, didn’t I? π Don’t worry….I don’t have them that often….
That’s such a pretty image, Jude. π
Taken after a very good meal at the harbour. A lovely warm, still evening with the golden light and mirror-glass water. This just looked like artwork.
Lovely photo, and lovely colours. π
Thanks Elaine. I wasn’t sure what to post for this challenge when I suddenly thought of this image.
