The Bloggler

The subject of this week's Sunday Stills photographic challenge is the colour orange .   One of the best things about Autumn is the changing colours of the landscape and in particular the various shades of orange that appear.  My first photograph therefore is a seasonal one and was taken in Tandle Hill Country Park a couple of years ago.  I'm not sure my camera did justice to this wonderful beech tree.   Looking through my photo collections I found 'Orange' a bit of a challenge.  However, I found this photo which I took in Tatton Park, Cheshire.  This deer is such a wonderful burnt orange colour.. My last one was taken in my garden and features a beautiful orange rose. The bush is still flowering now. Sunday Stills photo challenge is hosted by Terri Webster at Second Wind Leisure Perspectives .  Check out the entries on her site and enjoy some wonderful images of orange. 

Many personal bloggers are prolific posters. They share their daily movements and family stories with such ease and abandon.   They seem chirpy, busy people with lots of interests. On the other hand, they might really be quite boring and full of their own sense of importance.   Whatever!   They’re having fun and are keen to share themselves with us through their blogs and social media.   I read and indeed subscribe to many of these bloggers but for some reason I am uncomfortable sharing my own movements, life experiences, innermost thoughts and feelings, hobbies, relationships, etc..   I’d like to think I’m no less interesting a person than the average blogger but I have doubts as to whether people would be interested in much of what I get up to and what I think.   For some, personal blogging is a more serious affair .     They may focus on something they are really passionate about, like music or politics or they may focus on a cause, like their struggle with cancer or depression.
