Happy pics, by Iris
Here are a couple of bright, happy paintings by 4½-year-old Iris.
Because it’s been such a lovely, sunny day.

Headley Heath
Spring has sprung on a walk on Headley Heath,
on a lovely, sunny day but with a chilly wind.

A couple of songs
Who’d have thought this was Paul McCartney?
Best listened to through headphones or speakers, and loud!A Paul McCartney song and Elvis Costello’s great voice.

Losing one’s way
With lots of Photoshopping I can knock off maybe 20 years, though my son’s first reaction was “That looks very odd!”. Well, son, that’s what I intended, so there!
Walking south and uphill there was still a fair amount of snow to be found on today’s shortish walk.
A couple of days ago I did a longer walk in the same area. Then, in much worse conditions, I managed to become quite disorientated. Today’s walk was to figure out how I’d managed to end up where I had – which I managed to do. When the conditions are poor and everything’s covered in snow, and when you’re not paying sufficient attention to your surroundings, it’s quite easy to lose track of one’s location – despite having, as I did, the Ordnance Survey map app and GPS on the phone! Just as well I was in North Surrey and not North Wales…

On a bitterly cold walk

Nearly but not quite..
The snow didn’t really got going but it’s always nice to see.

Even the snowman has to wear a Covid mask!
When the snow came a fortnight ago I took this picture using the telephoto lens of my rarely used DSLR camera. Heavy snow is forecast for this weekend so I’m looking forward to taking more of the same. (A day after posting this I spotted the mask on the snowman, hence the re-titled blog post!).

A Grand Canyon walk
I came across this YouTube video and was knocked out. I’d love to do this Grand Canyon walk, but if not, this video is close enough to the real thing. On first viewing I thought the narrow path was rather scary, but each time I’ve come back to the video I’ve thought “I could do that!”. If you can watch it full screen and in HD (ideally 4K if your computer and broadband are up to it), you’ll get the maximum experience. Magnificent.

Art in the park
The entrance to Studio 9 of the Oaks Park Studios is not very inviting.
It looks like something one might have found in Eastern Europe circa 1950.
Stacked branches reminded me of………
……. an early artwork by my daughter
