Blowin' Free
I thought I had a girl
And all because I seen her.
I thought I had a girl
And all because I seen her.
Her hair was golden brown (yes it was)
Blowin free like a cornfield.
She was far away
I found it hard to reach her.
She told me you can try
But its impossible to find her.
In my dreams everything was all right -
In your schemes you can only try.

Hopper
I only saw one of these, so I can't enter the Thursday challenge! LOL!
I was hoping to use the lyrics of the Free song 'Little Bit of Love', too!
Why IS the challenge mid-week when most of us are busy in the middle of the working week? Hmmm ...
Ruth & Russell
Ruth & Russell were the lovely couple for whom I shot some pictures of their blessing ceremony on Sunday.
I think I might be catching the wedding photography bug!

Riders On The Shore
Sounds like a song title!
Seams Adjustment
I went to a WW2 re-enactment event today. Sadly, due to circumstances beyond my control I was limited to taking very few pictures.
Watching the film 'Battle of Britain' last night and taking in the scenes today made me realise firstly,
how close Britain came to being over-run by the Nazis in 1940. Only the bravery of the RAF with their Spitfires held the line.
And secondly, I realise how lucky I am not to have been called up to fight a war, and be left with the physical and mental
scars as a result. They were not a special generation but rather ordinary men and women called upon to do something special for us all.
I guess this picture celebrates the thought that with the distance of time, we can look back and enjoy some of the lighter moments of that period.
And that means freedom won through.
Serious? The hell I am!
Have a great weekend everyone! And don't get too serious until Monday!
