A collection of My Sunday Photo’s and other favourite photo’s I have taken.
This weeks photo’s for My Sunday Photo – Southend Pier were taken last week on a surprise visit to the longest pier in the world! 😱 These are some of my absolute favourite photo’s. It’s amazing to think all 3 have been there for so many years. The pier has an amazing railway too. I love visiting Southend in the summer, there is always something different to see or do.

My Sunday Photo this week is of a discarded orange rose that caught my eye the other day as we left one of our favourite parks. The park itself has a gorgeous garden area which is always beautiful to look at. There are lots of lovely flowers, trees and bushes dotted all around the park. This discarded orange rose really stood out in a garden of perfect flowers and lush green grass.
Sometimes things like this just capture your eye and you have to take a photo. I love how bright the orange is against the green grass and the way the sun shines on the rose. Roses are also my favourite flower, although I much prefer purple roses to orange. There is something about finding discarded flowers like this that just draw you in though. It’s also a lovely reminder that there is always imperfections amongst beauty.
We met the Mad Hatter in town! After a busy few weeks, we are finally back with a #MySundayPhoto after chasing Alice and The Mad Hatter through town to get this shot haha!
All the characters from Alice in Wonderland wandering around town for an event in town this week much to the girls’ amusement. We’ve been stuck in all week due to rubbish weather so it was nice to stop and have some fun in the middle of shopping.. plus we got a free cupcake each! Total win.
I spotted a picture in a cloud for this weeks #mysundayphoto. I spend a fair amount of time watching the clouds from my window. It can get quite boring without a garden but I spotted this a few nights ago. To me, it looks like there is a firefighter with a hose beneath a tree with smoke puffing out of it.
I spot all kinds of lovely things from my windows from rainbows to cloud shapes and enjoy taking photos. Whilst I would love to get out with my camera a bit more, I am lucky to have some great views.
This week, Sharky Mcshark Face is My Sunday Photo. This photo was taken during a walk with Izzy last week. Izzy loves to wander down to the sea wall to watch the boats on the river. She also pops her head around the gates of the yacht club to see any boats in the yard.
There is a second yard with a few boats in too, which is where we spotted Sharky Mcshark Face. We both found this so amusing that we had to take a photo. We probably spent a good 20 minutes talking about Sharky and making up a story about him.
Izzy says that Sharky looks like it’s sailing across the bushes to eat the smaller boat! What do you think? He does look rather hungry..
I love finding silly things like this on our walks, we make up fun little stories about them. Boatyards are especially fun as they often have paintings or names on the boats. This is definitely the best boat in the yard at the moment. We will have to look out for some more!
This weeks My Sunday photo’s were taken at Discover in Stratford (London) and outside Stratford station.
Whilst I fully admit to being completely rubbish and unable to do this fantastic place any justice with my photography (how do you get rid of those light spots!?) the girls loved both the event we attended and Discover.
This magical tree with it’s musical notes makes us all want to go back again very soon!
Outside Izzy was ecstatic to see this wooden taxi she had seen earlier in the week on google images. She dived straight in demanding I take a picture to send to her daddy so he knew she had found it haha!
Just when we thought the excitement was over for the day we headed back to Stratford Station. Eva spotted ‘Robert’ though and had to have a photo too!
This week Summer Blossom is my Sunday photo. These were taken a week or 2 ago on a lovely walk with the girls. There is something lovely about trees in blossom on a summers day. I love how the flowers really brighten up the path with something slightly different with every few steps. Here are a few of my favourite shots.
I love looking at all the different shades and shapes of flowers, they are quite pretty. Even if I do hate pink!
We walked an entire path littered with these lovely summer blossoms.
This week’s #mysundayphoto is a Custom Triumph we saw in town last week. I love the shade of red used on the Triumph and especially love the skulls! The Mr had a chat with the guy who owned it too. I love spotting motorbike’s I haven’t seen around before or customised bikes like this.
