Forget me not

Ideas don’t come all the time for a photograph when you are not travelling or going out. This one was taken under my trampoline on which I bounce every day. The forget-me-nots were doing well under here!

Three good things;
1. The Mitford Sisters. I watched a documentary on the sisters, the six Mitford girls - Nancy, Pamela, Diana, Unity, Jessica and Deborah -who experienced an upbringing steeped in eccentricity. They were all active in the same era as my mother who was in England at that time and her sister Louie who embraced the same leaning towards communism. Before the second world war.
2. I received a scam email from someone from “Darknet’ but with my email address and one of my old passwords in it! He said he had been accessing my computer for 6 months! Wanted money of course, to keep quiet! Quite unnerving but I sent the email to two scam sites in NZ and deleted it.
3. The ‘Fastforward’ button on the remote!
I have a pic of you in my mind's eye of you doing triple summersaults!!

Forget me nots always get a fav from me! Love their beauty, their color and their delicacy. Great capture.

I can just see it - you on the trampoline with the forget-me-not quivering underneath ,hoping you will not fall through ! ha ha !!

One of my favourite flowers:)

What a perfectly beautiful flower!

Very pretty flowers. Had lots of them in my garden last summer.

@30pics4jackiesdiamond My jumping is refined, Jackie - a gentle bounce!

@beryl There are also a lot of green ferns growing there too - makes a nice background to these tiny flowers!

@gijsje They are good value - go on flowering for weeks and always grow again!

They are such sweet little flowers.
Scammers are such a nuisance these days. We even had a message from them on our answer phone when we got home yesterday saying our Internet access had been compromised and all we have to do is press 1 to find out the solution. Needless to say we deleted the message.

Forget me Nots are so pretty- love the low point of view. They look like a fairy forest this way.

These forget me nots or really pretty. Pity they are hiding under your trampoline. Gorgeous shot.
October 22nd, 2018  
they are lovely, i was going to say something about you bouncing on them , but it didn't sort of read right !!!

@phil_howcroft haha, Phil! I can just imagine! I really don't bounce much - just sort of move up and down in an elegant way!

@maggiemae moving up and down in an elegant way is much more refined Maggie 😀
October 23rd, 2018  
I’m just so impressed that you jump “elegantly, gently and in a refined manner” on a trampoline! Just so cool, Maggie! I think we all deserve a photo of you on your trampoline! 😊 your forget me nots are beautiful.
October 23rd, 2018  
Impressive that you use a trampoline at all! I have a vision of you lying down on it and leaning under to get this beautiful image!

@grammyn I did think of that Katy but decided the ground was more stable!

@maggiemae I LOVE it! 😊
October 23rd, 2018  
no i will not forget you. :-) awesome shot, maggiemae. those flowers are real hard to photograph!
October 23rd, 2018  
Of course I won't forget you. I envisage a special kind of hell for scammers and other assorted rip-off merchants, where they have to deal with each other for absolutely everything.

@golftragic I do believe in Karma, Marnie! There are apparently a heap of these active in NZ at the moment. Poor little old ladies who barely manage to handle a computer! Not me!
October 23rd, 2018  
A lovely shot of your beautiful little blues, scary nr. 2 though!
October 23rd, 2018  
@maggiemae of course, apologies xx

@ludwigsdiana Apparently in 2011 to 2013 there was a huge amount of hacking that went on... millions of people's privates ( that is internet privates... not what you are thinking!) that were 'sold'. Four to five years later someone decided to cash in.

@30pics4jackiesdiamond hmmm.... can't you see the twinkle in my eye! No - I'll see if I can photograph it! Don't hold out much hope!
October 23rd, 2018  
@maggiemae just looked at the shot of you bouncing and I'm in awe!! But still got that triple summersault in my head, now with added eye twinkles!! Oh love your photo, so rude not to have praised it ( twice).
October 23rd, 2018  
this is pretty, like how it fills the frame
October 23rd, 2018  
Beautiful blue
October 23rd, 2018  
This is lovely, Maggiemae! Scary about the scam email...very creepy! I hope you changed your password! Fav.
October 23rd, 2018  
Fantastic - yellow center in blue eyes. Spring!
October 23rd, 2018  
One of my fave flowers. Good response to the darknet scam. Scary!
October 23rd, 2018
