Is It A Crown?

Well, we are all back to normal in this house.  The tree and decorations are all down. Dan and I are back at work, Laura will be home tonight after spending New Year with her boyfriend and will return to work tomorrow. Karen and Emma will be back to school and college next week. The sweets and goodies are diminishing - thank goodness.  It is quite good to be back to normal - even though I really enjoyed the break
.
 The only trouble is with being back at work I don't have as much free time and because the weather has been a bit iffy, to say the least, I had to find things in the house to photograph.
I posted pictures of my oil burner the other day but I  loved the topper so much - it reminds me of a crown.  So I decided to concentrate on that and see what I could get.
So here we are.



I'm getting a tad fed up of moaning about our rotten weather - but today I'm pleased to say we have blue sky, a bit chilly and breezy but we do have a blue sky. Yahoooo.  

So nice to see it again!!! It is amazing how a nice bit of sun can make you feel so much happier!

I went down to the beach and took some pictures out in the fresh air today. It was great. :))

That's a pretty topper alright, and you have photographed it well. Great light and detail!

Since my mobility is limited, I often have to find things to photograph inside the house, it's surprising what you can come up with!

it is true - a spate of bad weather (or horrendous weather as you've had) can make you SO appreciative of the sun and blue skies! :)

Is that the topper to that bottle thingie you showed the other day...I think it was to burn oil in?

Hey, I am so thankful we have not had the normal dark dreary days we normally have...we have had some but so far it has not been for days and days on end. I can take a couple or three days here and there, as long as I see the sunshine for a while fairly often.
What a lovely shot. And yea!! for blue skies ;)

This definitely looks like a crown...beautiful! I like how the lights casts off the edge of it, too. Thank you so much for your kind words about my photo and poem! Your walk at the beach sounds wonderful...
It sure does look like a crown. It is always nice to see the blue sky and sun shine.
