This is my favourite of the village allotments. It belongs to Steve and he and his family are almost self-sufficient in vegetables with what he produces.

Quite a busy day in a mundane kind of way. It is our wedding anniversary and we are off out to a party in the village this evening - in fact in about half an hour's time, so I had better go and get ready - going to be late again!

Happy wedding anniversary Jan & lovely to celebrate with friends in the village!
Matching wheel barrows, I wonder who has the rusty one!

I think it is the way you have processed this that makes it particularly appealing - you have brought out the tones and the textures very nicely. I particularly like the rusty barrow. Have fun.

As Linda says, the scene really comes alive with your great processing. I really like how you have made an ordinary view into something special. Great for the theme.

hope you have a lovely time. Nice composition. I've just eaten home grown potatoes and courgettes for my dinner tonight. You can't beat growing veg yourself

@gamelee that's why I was going to be late Lee, sadly it takes quite a bit longer than that these days.

Happy anniversary and if you're not in the theme final I'm going on strike. Forgot to say my onions are a lot smaller than yours - maybe I should thin them out a bit belatedly?

Happy Anniversary for yesterday - I'm jealous of the allotment, lol

Oh really like this - the colours and the textures. Happy anniversary!

I love this shot. Your processing gives it a sort of dreamy feel.
