It's a first...

After over 11 years of putting a photo on each day, I'm now giving up for today! My back pain has not subsided and I went to the doctor. He thought it was a 'soft tissue' injury. Doesn't feel soft at all to me! Anyway I've not the inclination to go looking for a photo.
This was taken some years ago when we stayed at a place in Tekapo - I think!
Thankful for:
I know nobody except myself will judge me but its more keeping my head above water.

[Beryl Lloyd]

Alovely peaceful scene . Hope your pains will subside soon . Take care .

[Maggiemae]

@beryl Thanks Beryl - I've now got serious pain killers!

[Nada]

I hope you feel better soon. Over 11 years is amazing!

[Diana]

What an amazing record you have, not sure if anyone here can top that! Beautiful shot and wonderful layers. I do hope that your pain subsides now and that you will soon be better.

[Maggiemae]

@ludwigsdiana thank you Diana! I have some high pain killers but not dangerous. They are making a difference!

[haskar]

Amazing scene and capture. Sorry to hear about your pain killers. I hope it will pass soon.

[Christina]

11 years - you're a legend! I hope you manage to get out and about tomorrow

[Maggiemae]

@christinav Getting out of bed in the morning has been the worst pain experience... it will be better tomorrow with the pills!

[Issi Bannerman]

You just keep on keeping on! The photo posting will help keep your mind off it. I hope you get some relief soon. This is a lovely image.

[Sue]

I hope your back lets you get back out there taking photos. All the best

[Dianne]

You have done so well to take an image each day for so long. This one looks great, even if you did 'cheat'. I find it tricky when things get busy and revert back to some stock images...

[Joan Robillard]

There are lots of people on 365 who do not take and post a picture every day. Good time to post some wonderful photos from your archives

[Valerie Chesney]

Maggiemae this capture is just gorgeous....Take care & do hope the medication will really help you ;, I so enjoy your photos,

[Kerry McCarthy]

You should be very proud of your photo a day for over 11 years and go easy on yourself! Get better and you can get back on track. Hope the pills do their job and you feel better soon. Also very pretty, colorful scene!

FAV Stunning, especially when viewed on black

I am so sorry to hear about your pain. I know how debilitating it can be and how demoralizing as well. I wish I could fix it for you immediately. Just hang in there and take one day at a time. Focus on getting better which I know you are doing.

Beautiful capture of colors, reflections, layers

[Elisabeth Sæter]

Beautiful

[Corinne]

Wonderful colors

[Daisy Miller]

Gorgeous shot. I hope your back feels better soon.

[Lee-Ann]

Great shot. Hope you feel better soon. Congratualtions on 11 years.

[Ann H. LeFevre]

Bravo Maggie! You should absolutely nurse that back and not worry about the shot. You've earned it!! I got through 2 years before not shooting daily- so I can't tell you how much I admire 11 years of it!! I do hope your back heals quickly and in the meantime, it's a nice shot to use as a stand in.

[Pat Knowles]

So sorry you are in pain & I know you have been soldering on so you must be feeling desperate. Glad I back checked your photos or I wouldn’t have known.
So glad you posted this beauty….it’s just such a pretty scene.
Hope you get some relief…..take it easy!
I have given up posting same day photos long since….well done on your long unbroken record. X

[Maggiemae]

@happypat It was the lack of enthusiasm that got me on this day, Pat. I just couldn't summon up the energy. OK now though!
