Melanie is my friend who lives in Australia and she loves photography. Every month Melanie has taken part in this monthly neme and we managed to find a way round her not having a blog by posting here. I love that we have found a way for her to take part so once again Melanie, a big thank you, and over to you:
December 5th already and just 20 days until Christmas. A busy time for everyone on this lead up to Christmas. Although my cards are in the post I still have a heap of Christmas e-mails to write to friends who only ever hear from me by e-mail at Christmas. I have set myself a deadline to get these written before the end of next week as next weekend we have two friends arriving on a visit from the UK so my time will be fully occupied doing fun things with them. When they leave I shall just have a few cooking days before Christmas Eve when our daughter who lives in the UK arrives so with heaps to do and although I thought about taking a day out somewhere away from home to take photos I decided no. I had food shopping to do today as we have friends coming for brunch on Sunday so I decided to take my camera to the supermarket, something I have not done before. So here are my 5 in 5 photos with Christmas as a theme.
Top left photo as I entered the store the door had a bauble wreath.
The middle left photo as I walked through the door was a white Christmas tree.
The middle photo with the candy cane was taken nearby the white tree with the fruit and veg, there were several more candy canes around the place.
The large tree in the left hand photo was by the information desk, also near the fruit and veg.
Then at the end of an isle was the ‘Everyone loves music’ display with its Merry Christmas sign, this is my bottom photo on the left. Incidentally I did get the shopping done as well as take photos and as I walked around with my camera taking photos not a single person asked me why.
As always, a big thank you to Melanie and I really enjoyed seeing this different take on 5 in 5. It just goes to show you don't need to plan a special location - just grab your opportunity and see what happens! This links with my own post this month, and if this has inspired you to take part in this challenge you have until 25th before this months link closes. It's great fun and this post should answer any questions or give other information that you need.
Links for this months posts are here and hopefully I'll be back with more photos from Melanie and myself next month. I hope you will join us!
