A2Z Challenge, seasons

IMG_E2093-2

At the beginning of April, I wasn’t working, I had time on my hands, so I decided to join this annual alphabet challenge.

Here we are at the end of the month and I have managed to post every day. It’s been a rather random selection of topics, but I’ve enjoyed sharing my month and some favourite photos.

My “photo a day” group also ran an alphabet challenge this month, with the first four days having number themes before the letters started. Here are PAD my photos.IMG_4569

Looking back, it’s been weeks of glorious weather here in Hobart. Even though I started a full time temp job mid-month, I’ve still found time to get outdoors and connect with nature, as evidenced by the pictures.

I was chuffed that my photo of Russell Falls, taken on Friday, was selected as a “Fab Four” winner for the letter W in the PAD group.DSC01331

This is my contribution to Su’s Changing Seasons challenge

A2Z Challenge, boats

Hobart is a city of yachts.

A2Z Challenge, beach

IMG_3901
Whilst out for a walk on a new beach recently, we came across these wooden stumps jutting out of the water. I love the texture, the shadows, the reflections and of course another beautiful warm sunny day in Tassie.

A2Z Challenge, work

I’m a week into a new job, a temporary position for a few months, doing Accounts Payable at a school. I have lots of questions, about the system, their procedure. New names and faces to remember, a large school campus to navigate.

It’s a long time since I’ve put myself under this much pressure, pushed myself this much out of my comfort zone. But it is getting easier each day. I have revisited a couple of text books from my studies last year, which help. Everyone is very friendly and supportive.

I’m sure I’ll soon get on top of the workload and it will feel less hectic. In the meantime, roll on the weekend! IMG_E4122

A2Z Challenge, photos

This piano is out of place, left outside in the elements, on the veranda of a neglected building. I noticed it at the same place as the vehicles I posted a couple of days ago.

There are a couple of local cafes that use unmatched cups and saucers. What a lovely way to repurpose.

I wonder what stories these vehicles would tell, where they have been, who travelled in them?IMG_E2097IMG_2549IMG_2552
