Today’s TDC says:

Use this random word generator and write a haiku (5, 7, 5 syllables) about the first word you generate!

The word I got was drift:

A crisp autumn day
Clouds drift across the skyline
Trees dance in the breeze

I took a photo through my study window, it’s at the top of this post

Lasts⤴

This week we’re up in Findhorn on what will be our last seaside holiday of the year. On Saturday I took this photo as we walked along the sea front.

Stars at night⤴

During the month of August I will be participating in Blaugust, a month long blogging challenge.

Today’s TDC says:

Neal.Fun has another interesting site: Constellation Draw. See what you can design in the skies for the Daily Create Galaxy.

This is a remix from just 3 months ago, so I still remmber trying to draw a cat last time:

This time the sky it showed me gave me an idea – I saw a small constellatio called triangulum, so I drew a large one to go with it called triangulus.

Now all I need to do is to look for it next time I can see the stars at night!

Inner monologue⤴

During the month of August I will be participating in Blaugust, a month long blogging challenge.

Today’s TDC asks us to:

Tell us about your inner monologue. Bonus points for recording it.

Work’s tricky at the moment, so a lot of my inner monologue is best kept to myself, but there’s one thing on my mind today. Yesterday was the day of a solar eclipse, with a pretty good partial eclipse in Glasgow. We were prepared with pinhole cameras, but the day was cloudy. Above is the picture I took at about 7pm, the time of the maximum eclipse. It’s a dramatic picture, but no sign of the eclipse itself (pinhole cameras were also no good).

I woke up this morning to a hot summer day(though it is getting more cloudy again now). So my inner monologue is all about f***ing clouds and Scottish weather.

I hope you all managed to see it where you are.
