Back Alley Dominoes by bmnorthernlight

Back Alley Dominoes

The gales are having a great time playing dominoes...had to retrieve my bin from the bottom of the back alley yet again. The wind is so icy and strong, laundry and other chores are piling up - I'll not venture much further today I think! It's been a restless night with the gales shaking the bay window and rain lashing down!

Thank you all a bunch for your wonderful comments and faves over the past few days. Feel thoroughly invigorated by the 365 vibe and that's down to all of you taking the time to view and comment! Got two more days in December to catch up on and then I'm back on track - yay!

I am attempting the SOOC week challenge - very hard not to hit those editing buttons ;-)

ha - although not so funny this morning when I was walking the dog and the trees were creaking.

@fueast I bet, it's fierce! and it just went pitch black outside...

@bmnorthernlight we had a nice half hour... and now its hailing.

Opps, cool shot, was very windy though, lots of trees down round here.
January 3rd, 2012  
I like the unusual angle
January 3rd, 2012  
Great shot - I agree with David, the angle makes it!

I actually loved the title you chose - that would be an awesome name for a band! ;o)
January 3rd, 2012  
cool idea for a shot, love it!
January 3rd, 2012  
Great angle to capture this shot!!
January 3rd, 2012  
Looks familiar today! Love the angle and the title!
January 3rd, 2012  
Love this. Exactly how my back street looks! In fact was gonna take almost the same shot but the hail dettered me!
January 3rd, 2012  
Clever shot. You're right those trash cans fall like dominos. I like how you used the angle for emphasis.
January 3rd, 2012  
Cool shot - I was wondering how you'd all be getting on. What direction is that wind coming from - it's freezing!! I'm suspecting it's the dreaded Urals wind!

@johnnyfrs Eek, keep away from the trees! was glad to have a day off and didn't have to drive to work over three very exposed bridges/inlets...

@judithg I lasted 5 minutes outside! definitely something very very icy!
January 3rd, 2012  
Great catch.
January 3rd, 2012  
Yes it's been very windy here too .. It is bin day tomorrow so hopefully it won't be so windy!

Hi, Happy New Year! Just trying to catch up with everyones photos, not to mention days worth of back uploading (does that even begin to make sense) anyways nice to put a name to a face and a face to a name. So please to 'meet' you Barbara. I really like your advent wreath, very subtle. Lets hope this wind dies down soon, the flight yesterday was a little up and down, my for sale sign has blown over the the bird table has gone the way too. Still no snow yet:0)
Love this shot the title is excellent.

@claireuk Thanks Claire! Nice to "meet" you too :-) I can imagine the landing was a bit rough!! I have just caught up on my christmas shots. 4 short days with the family didn't really leave any time to post and straight back into work at full steam afterwards. So I know what you mean! Would love some snow, but not looking forward to the travel chaos it might cause ;-)

Great find!!!
January 3rd, 2012  
really great shot to sum up the weather! I had to avoid flying recycling boxes on a country road this morning! Just glad I didn't have to fly anywhere today!
January 3rd, 2012  
@sixthblade Thanks Miguel! Lol, maybe we'll have to set up a 365 band with that name?! I'll do backing vocals ;-D
January 3rd, 2012  
great capture and comment - we too have had lots of wind and rain : (
January 4th, 2012  
What a fun shot! We have had more wind than usual during the last month.
