In the Willows

“It's my world, and I don't want any other. What it hasn't got is not worth having, and what it doesn't know is not worth knowing.”

The Wind in the Willows - Kenneth Graeme


The weekly theme from the 52 week challenge this last week - Vision: Classic Novel
Create an image that identifies a classic novel or story.

A bit of a weak offering, and a last minute 'plan b' option.

I may need to take a break for a few days this week. I don't want to , but it is looking like the sensible option. Apologies in advance, I will miss your photos.
We will miss yours too! Very peaceful scene and the book was a childhood favourite

There is no wind here but the willows are very pretty! Don't disappear completely, though - would miss your postings!

ah only just saw this for some reason. i hope you're okay and look forward to when you can post again. there's a slightly mournful gentleness about this image for me

@pdulis thanks Peter
@bkbinthecity thank you for the comment :)
@haskar thank you very much
@ivan glad you found it peaceful - thanks
@naomi thanks Naomi - that is what I like so much about the willow trees when their branches reach the water.
@chimfa thank you kindly Jane.
@suzanne234 thanks Suzanne
@redandwhite thank you - yes, so much better when they have not just been 'trimmed'
@taffy we have a number along the river down the end of our road. They are so lovely except when the council give them a drastic hair cut.
@jerome the calmness has to be drawn out of the busy town river front. But it is there.
@pistache Clare. Im OK.thank you. After taking last week off, Im wondering how I will ever claw the time back to post again. But I will!
@granagringa - I look forward to retirement when I tell myself that I can indulge more in the project. But I have a few years yet! Thank you for your kind comment.
@carolmw Thank you Carol. Much appreciated.

@helenhall I realize now that you want to pause for a few days. What motivations you have... I'll probably do something similar soon.
I miss your pleasant presence, your beautiful thoughts, your empathetic nature.
