Just a few more abstract sightings from around my garden. It's amazing what there is to be photographed just in your immediate surroundings. My garden is SMALL but the inspiration it supplies is vast. I hope you enjoy them.

It's Friday so lets have some colour today. I have a number of ongoing themes which I will be adding to over the next few months/years. The intention is to make a collection large enough to compose a book of my best works in each of these themes. 

One of those themes is 'Green' a collection of abstracts featuring Green as the prominent colour. So just to wet your appetite a little here are a few images from the collection so far. Have a great weekend everyone.
