Framed Photos

I've been refreshing the photo frames around the house that have my pictures in them. It's a satisfying little task that keeps me busy and brightens up the rooms they're in with new colours. It's too easy to walk past a picture frame and not look because you're used to the picture, but changing them now and again catches the eye. I decided to use Wild Flowers as a theme in one frame, and three of my Rhosneigr shots in another.

Flickr Interest

Since realising that it's important to 'tag' photos that I post on my Flickr site, I've joined a few groups that my photos fit into, and they've attracted some interest and comments!!
Two 'Sunset' groups in particular are proving popular!!
