I’m on time for this weeks photo Friday.
The subject matter was sleep, and I immediately thought of a photo I have of Jamie as a newborn, dressed in bright orange, leant up on a fluorescent green towel, lying on a vivid purple blanket… with Nina (the cat) above his head
I could have been one of the first entries this week, not one of the last!
I decided not to do that one though and, as the entries rolled in, I noticed there were a lot with children and pets sleeping together.
There were also a lot of just children sleeping, as well as a lot of pets sleeping, and quite a few partners sleeping… with footnotes announcing the publishers imminent demise when said partner actually finds out!
I decided that maybe the best way to tackle this would be to approach from a more abstract angle. My first thought was a photo of darkness, which I dismissed as quickly as I thought about it. A couple of other entries beat me to the “death” angle. My photography skills are not good enough to pull that one off anyway.
Enjoying a pleasant winters afternoon in my mums garden, watching the kids eat mandarins they had picked fresh from the tree, I was suddenly hit with my inspiration.
So here is this weeks entry, Enjoy!
The Almond tree in my mothers garden, sleeping through the Australian winter.
