Big
from me DS. It sounds as though work is a bit of a 'mare at the moment - you definitely need that holiday. Are you taking your birthday present with you?
We all seem to have lows on this challenge and we all have 'filler' shots or post late - no shame in either, imo.
I always look forward to your posts and looking back over your shots, I see consistently excellent piccies, spot on for the theme, creative, fun and just plain clever. You've been giving thoughtful and honest critique to other 52ers and I for one think this is a good time to say a big 'thank you' to you - enjoy your hols, your new camera and hopefully some duty-free JD.
I'm really looking forward to the next instalment of 52 Weeks of Daysleeping.
