In a spin

Just playing for time whilst I work out where to go next with my photographs. Here is another one that I had fun with from my birthday flowers.

I am in a bit of a spin actually, since my new regime started this morning (it is already losing resolve). I got up and went swimming before work! By 2.00 pm I was flagging and then I have been hard at it all evening preparing a presentation for tomorrow night. This isn't part of the new regime - just the swimming bit. Oh, and the getting to bed early bit. 11pm deadline. Well, that one needs some practice, but if you will excuse me, I will be off shortly and save your much more learned photography to view tomorrow.

Lovely colours Very nice

mmm now i really love this. getting to bed early sounds very sensible. it's gone midnight and i'm probably going to upload today's images and faff with them. instead of going to bed

[belinda]

this is lovely, love the colours and the abstract feel to it. I have been absent of late so belated birthday greetings. Hope your new regime works for you.

[Ann Williams]

Missed your birthday - many happy returns for last week Helen. Your image looks as soft as a pillow. Good luck with your new regime.

[Kas]

Has a lovely textured feel to it. Nice shot. I struggle with the getting to bed at a reasonable hour, even though I know it makes sense!

[Stephanie]

This is interesting editing. I like the motion effect and the sparkly glittery look you have achieved.

Brilliant, fabulous, awesome, outstanding.. pick any one of them for my reaction to this great abstract. Or, you could just include them all, lol..

i start an 'earlier to bed' routine every week.. the big problem is this: i run out of day before i run out of things i intended doing.. this seems to be my new way of living.. Although what used to take x amount of time now takes 3 or four times longer, the day has stayed at 24 hours, so inconsiderate. :-)

This is lovely. It somehow looks like textile artwork to me. Love the hot colours but soft blur

@777margo thank you Margo.
@pistache Thank you Clare - I am glad you like it. The early bed routine isn't going so well. I suffer from the same distractions as you by the sound of it.
@adayinmallacoota Thank you so much. You don't often see pink from me! Appreciate you dropping by and pleased to deduce that you haven't been swallowed by that whale in your coffee. look forward to seeing more from you soon.
@flowerfairyann thank you Ann. A soft pillow is what I should be heading for right now.
@wag864 thank you kas. The struggle continues re bed time.
@stephanies thank you. It all looks deceptively simple - but I really did ETSOOI. Such a fun challenge.
@jorlam You are definitely too kind Jorlam. I so identifiy with your sentiment. I am forever running out of day and feel that the 24 hrs restriction is unreasonable.
@helenm2016 thank you Helen for your observations.

wonderful ,,, fav

[Taffy]

Oh gosh, in bed by 11:00 would be a huge challenge for me! Good luck to you! Swimming is such a healthy sport, so I do hope you can stay with it.

[Kathy A]

Fabulous abstract, lovely colours. I'm trying really hard to be in bed by 11pm too, most days I fail.

[Larry L]

very cool

[haskar]

Nice processing.

[Helen Jane]

@pdulis much appreciated, thank you.
@taffy the in bed by 11 turned out to be wishful thinking. I managed one night of it. Perhaps tonight .....
@kjarn Kathy Im not doing well on that front either. Thank you for your kind comment
@lsquared your visit much appreciated
@haskar thank you - just a bit of fun
