Symmetry or synchronicity?
When I was compiling a photo book of my work, I tried to make the journey from one picture to the next a link of visual impact. To match one photo with the next.
When I was looking for pictures showing symmetery, I found, like most of you here on this thread, that my brain works more on asymmetry than mirror images. Whatever feels right to me. So I tried with my photo books to do the same.

Apologies that today's daily theme matches the monthly theme. Oversight at the time! But hey, no complaints if you duplicate postings.

Everyday beauty.

Well, in my kitchen anyway.

Poppies in the garden.

Just a walk in the peace of the countryside, listening to the bees and smelling the flowers.

Makes me think of a late November trip to Madrid, somehow the work was completed ahead of schedule and we had a day to explore. I was taken by the beauty orange tree lined streets but shocked that so much fruit lay rotting on the pavements.

I have posted this before, it is an old shot and I really should get around to sorting out the levels.

In my mind one of the unsung beauties of our native birds.

When not nesting in your roofspace. They have learned how to remove the guards on the ventilation holes in the soffits. Amazing how they can fly vertically up into a small hole. Quite amazing to watch because they have to fold their wings at the very last moment in order to pass through.

I did consider a selfie after my hair cut, but I'll spare you that! Ha!
