A Different Type of March

While I had a day off, I thought I would be taking photos, and yet Mother Nature had other plans.

Mother Nature’s plans were most welcome though, and I know the garden is loving all the water it is finally receiving thanks to a rain depression – the remnants of Tropical Cyclone Trevor that has travelled south-east from the top of our country, filling rivers and flooding plains.  We’ve not been flooded, but have received a substantial amount of rainfall over the last 48 – 72 hours.

But this is only one thing that interrupted my plans for March as work and other aspects of life have kept me busy and even though I have been hard-pressed to find time to write on my blog, I’ve not been so time-poor that I’ve not taken a few photos.

As most of you already know, I love taking photos of the flowers I grow in my garden, and I did manage to photograph this one for Cee’s Flower of the Day photo challenge.

I also photographed this one thinking it fit the mould as a pointy thing for Becky’s ‘Spiky’ Squares in March photo challenge.

There have also been other things I’ve photographed.  For example, I also took some photos of the Super Moon last Thursday night.

Ok, so I took that photo at 3:37 am on Friday morning because cloud cover had obscured my view earlier and my inner clock woke me up so I could step outside and gaze skyward.

I love those quiet times when its just me and The Moon.  Here’s another shot.

So you see, I have been playing with my camera, snapping photos on my phone, and mentally planning on sharing them and writing something – anything – to go with them.  Yes, my blogging intentions have been very good indeed and sadly, all they have been lately are intentions.

But this time of the year can be crazy and my other pastime – Toastmasters – has been keeping me busy – very busy indeed and there are no prizes for guessing what I’m off to do right now.
