I Found this photo tonight,whilst looking through my files,it was taken in 2006,in Hayle, Cornwall.

When one finds a silver coin your heart misses a beat. This one is dated 1745 and is marked LIMA indicating that the silver was taken from a Spanish ship or Colony in South America. The coin still looks like new not as does the modern coinage which in the ground decays very quickly. If gold turns up it could be the end !

The challenge subject is ' circle' and the coil of a detector comes to mind.

'Where your treasure is there may your heart be also' ! I enjoy detecting and finding historic objects like the recently detected Roman Brooch and old silver coins. I have yet to strike gold !

RUN DEEP

A sad reflection on this countries transport policies

AND A LITTLE ARTISTIC LICIENCE

Nothing clever here, this just amused me.

Found this lazing around on my hard drive !

Is this more squarey than circley ?

Dare I suggest next weeks theme !

This pic taken in the grounds of Culzean (pronounced kuh-lane).

Culzean Castle, It's more of a huge chateau than a castle, is located on the SW coast of Scotland, right near the lovely town of Ayr. Culzean sits on a very impressive cliff overlooking the Firth of Clyde. The grounds are as nice as the house itself.

Gen. Eisenhower used the house during the war and was given some sort of honorary title to the place afterwards.

Not the sort of snack bar you find in a British lay-by

I DID NOT GET TO WALK UP THEM

Hi to everybody...here's a photo of one of my silk flower arrangements...tried to take another two of my others but the batteries ran out and my hand shook on the second so I've only got this, and I think my graphic card is beginning to give up the ghost as well...my Camedia which I use for my digi camera keeps crashing... Anyway, here's my pic...LOL

big hugs to one and all....

WE HAVE A WINNER!

Yesterday I posted this picture and asked which film title it represented.

The answer is PILLOW TALK starring Rock Hudson and Doris Day.

CONGRATULATIONS AND A BAG OF POPCORN GOES TO TREVOR aka joebangles

I took this picture in Hyde Park, I was messing around with a Infra Red filter, and then converted to black and white.

I happened across this while walking in the woods waiting for my car to be serviced. It was quiet early in the morning and I didn't get too close.

Rabbit

Charlie said that the idea was "to get our creative minds thinking a little......from literal to abstract".

Round, like a circle in a spiral
Like a wheel within a wheel.
Never ending or beginning,
On an ever spinning wheel
As the images unwind
Like the circles that you find
In the windmills of your mind

(Theme from The Thomas Crown Affair)

I'm not sure whether this works... what do you think?
