‘You don’t learn to walk by following rules. You learn by doing, and by falling over.’     Richard Branson

With the daily shot from my local forest, I’m including a shot of the wider world, not always entirely ‘natural’, to provide a wider view of the world and its wonders.

The River Arno in Florence.

Share on social media so we’ll reach more people stuck indoors due to Covid-19. Who knows, between us, we might also restore some love and respect for nature and slow down the damage we inflict on our world? Thank you.

Enjoy my pictures? You’ll find more in my professional gallery, here. A small selection is also available via the ‘Gallery’ tab at the top of this page.

    1. You’re welcome, Noelle. It was part of our fortnight in Italy for our 30th anniversary. A really good trip. Rome, Pompeii, Florence and Stresa on Lake Maggiore.

    1. We had five nights here, in a hotel overlooking the river and within sight of the Ponte Vechio. Fascinating place. The visit we made to the Uffizi created mixed feelings: brilliant displays of wonderful art, but too many people, most of them taking selfies with the art as background! But we had some good walks and some fabulous food, too!

      1. I find that so annoying. It seems that many people aren’t really interested in enjoying the art (or whatever it is). They just want to show others that they “were there.” They’re standing in the way, swinging their selfie sticks around – selfie is the right word. This is incredibly selfish behaviour.

        1. I agree, Lynette. Irritating, but an indicator of what matters to most people these days: bragging rights, and the superficial rather than anything with substance.
