“Where do you belong? In the hustle and bustle of a big city or amongst friendly faces in a small town? For this week’s challenge, show us your place in the world….Where’s your safe space? Where do you go when you need to feel inspired or cheered up?”
Yard is where I belong….Jamaica…right here…home.
Looking north…

Weekly Photo Challenge – Place in the World
“Share with us an image, or two, or three, (or more!) of where you live. For bonus points, tell us what it is about the photo(s) that you love.”
I have lived in the Kingston Metropolitan Area of Jamaica almost all of my life. On the flat land of the Liguanea Plain. And I love the surrounding hills and mountains that you can see…driving on the Palisadoes strip, on the way in from the airport…
…to the west, as the morning sun shines on them…
…the mountains to the north, seen from Hope Gardens….
A flat lander, who loves being able to see the hills….
Weekly Photo Challenge – Tour Guide
“In this week’s challenge, share with us something that is beloved.”
Moments of solitude are something beloved by me. To sit on my roof by myself and watch the clouds in their infinite variety of shapes and colours, like these mammatus clouds the other morning…
Or on a cottage balcony, way up in the hills, looking down at city lights…
Or having breakfast by myself in a town in a country a long way from home…
Time alone…with a book, with a cup of tea, with a journal, in nature…lovely…
Weekly Photo Challenge – Beloved
“How would you capture silence in a photograph?”
Sitting on a chair at Strawberry Hill, looking over the valley towards Newcastle. In the Blue Mountains. Good silence.
“This week, share a visual moment of blissful quiet.”
In the hills, watching the sun go down, a frangipani tree nearby…a moment of blissful quiet….
