I've been talking about my appalling photography skills for as long as I've been blogging. In January I also promised myself that I would try to get better at it this year.
So, it's August now, which means it must be time to do something about my new year's resolutions. I'm joining in with A Bit of Sunshine's 'Ten on Ten' for the first time this month. Once a month on the tenth taking a photo an hour for ten consecutive hours. Finding much life and beauty among the ordinary things of our day!
I confess I cheated a little. I kept forgetting to take a pic each hour. I supplemented two missing photos with ones I'd taken at about that time on another day. Whoops. Plus, I used my iPhone with Instagram for most of the pics. Which I think is cheating even more... Will do better once I get into the 10/10 groove, I promise!

I loved Ten on Ten this month. I'll be back for sure! Pop over to A Little Bit of Sunshine to check out other Ten on Ten action.
* Cappers 'landed funny' on her ankle on the trampoline on Sunday. Thank god I didn't make her 'hop' into school on Monday and instead kept her home to rest. We watched her ankle grow larger by the hour and by Monday night we were getting a cast put on in Emergency. She's doing just fine, don't worry! But I tell you, it's been a hell of a week... there is something much worse than 'routine' after all!!!
