Hello everyone!
So, the deadline for my dissertation is fast approaching. I know that my posts have been few this month, but it’s been a super busy one so I hope you all forgive me!
I’m making sure to read everyone’s posts as they come, but bear with me, I’m a little slower than usual at the moment!
I’ve recently discovered Instagram, I know, I’m slow, right? 😛 But as a small token of my thanks for your all your thoughts, comments, and ongoing support, I’d like to offer you some photographs that I’ve taken over the course of a few months/years.
Some are fairly recent, like the ones in the Peak District, Sheffield, and others are from my time in Kyoto, Japan 2011. I’ve even thrown in a pic of my doggie, Jodie; isn’t she a little cutie?

Just beautiful! What a grand tour!
Thank you very much Catherine! x
How lovely that you’ve jumped head first into Instagram! It looks as though you have a really good eye! (Love the Japanese fiery maple!)
anne
Thank you Anne! The maple, and the others I saw, really were stunning at that time of year! How I long to return one day~ 🙂 x
Aw, we all get behind on comment and blogging at times…life calls us time and time again.
These photo are marvelous and might even try my hand at painting one of them one day…no promises, but I never really know what I want to paint. Sometimes I just surprise myself.
You have seen some very beautiful places so far in your life…excellent Eve!
Do have a most wonderful day!
Hugs ♥ xx
You’re right, Deb, it does! I’d love to see you paint one, that would be awesome! 😀 I have been very fortunate to see what I have, I’m hoping to return to Japan one day~
Have a great day too! xx
These are really beautiful, Eve and good luck with the dissertation…I find cake and sherry are a real help! Clairex
Hehe, thank you Claire! Cake is in abundance, perhaps some wine later to ‘smooth’ things along… 😛
Thanks so much for following my blog, Eve. Very much appreciated! x
My absolute pleasure Claire! I was sure that I’d done it before, but now I can be certain. 🙂 x
Beautiful Eve! It’s lovely to see photos from ‘around the world’ all in one place 🙂
Thank you Angela! I’m really glad you like them. 🙂
Beautiful collection of pictures. Awesome.
Thank you Arindam!
Wishing you nearer to a successful dissertation, Eve…Jodie is a sweet pea 🙂
Thank you Kathryn, I’m getting there! 🙂 x
Beautiful photos. Good luck on your dissertation.
Many thanks Janet! 😀
Beautiful pictures! I love the cherry blossoms and the bridge pic in Japan. Wish you the best on your dissertation.
Thank you! I really like that one, too. 🙂
Instagram can quickly become quite an addiction 😀 When I first discovered the site I would lose an hour or two just browsing through the lovely photos of the other members on the site- not to mention the itch to go out and take more pictures of my own. This is a gorgeous set. Best of luck completing your dissertation.
I know what you mean! I’m really enjoying have a look through, some people can be so creative with their shots. 🙂 And thank you, nearly there!
Lovely pics… I think I must get myself into Instagram too. Inspired 🙂
Thank you Lindsay. 🙂 Oh you should, If you do, lets add each other!
I love your photos, Eve. You just have an artistic soul! Major congratulations on getting so close to your dissertation deadline, and so of course you are going to be stretched more than ever! Be sure to post a “congratulations to me” poem when you have completed this leg of your journey. I think you have yet a long way to go with many wonderful accomplishments to come…you are an amazing talent. Debra
Thank you Debra! I think I will post one, that’s a great idea! 😀 Glad you like them, it’s another lovely creative outlet for me~ x
Very nice!
My thanks!
These are beautiful Eve! Yes, make sure the dissertation gets the max (I’ve tried to tell my son this but deaf ears and all that…!); how on earth you’ve managed to produce such original and gorgeous poetry AND complete a degree, I shall never know. Women’s ‘multi-tasking abilities’ just don’t come into it!
Well done and take care!
Thank you so much David! I’m not sure how I’m coping either! I’ve got so much more work to do at the moment, I’m just trying to keep a calm head. 😛 I’ll be sure to celebrate with you all once it’s all over! x
Yes, you must celebrate when it’s all over. In mean time, work hard but keep calm and try to take it in your stride. 🙂
oh wow…nice pics…i would def get lost in those woods or cross that bridge…or find those pretty peaks any day…little bit of magic there….best wishes on the dissertation as well…
Thank you for your wishes Brian! I’m doing my best to get it all done, and done well… I’ll be glad when it’s over though! Glad you like the photographs, too! They’re all little memories that I keep close to my heart~ 😀 x
I too am a new Instagram addict. I love your photos (and this blog), you now have a new Instagram follower 🙂
Good luck with your dissertation too!
Thank you for your good luck wishes! They’re helping me along. 🙂
And yay, new follower, thank you! x
You’re welcome 🙂
Jodie, Cloudy Peak, Red Acer Palmatum Red Emperor – my favs!!
Thank you! I’m glad you like those! The Maple is one of my favourites – red and gorgeous. 🙂
Jodie, only Jodie heheh..Oh my, don’t worry you’re not alone in this “slowiness”(as I call it :)) I just discovered Instagram only recently too, in my android and right now I still cannot settle on a specific time to get my hands on it! Poor app, he might get all mossy ehehe…:)
Aww, you should give it a go! Add me if you do~ Jodie really is such a sweetie, and such a poser! 😛
I’m also in love with instagram, glad it’s finally available on android. Such a nice app, simple, fun, fast. 🙂 Lovely pictures on the cherry blossom!
Lovely photographs. Your dog is a cutie. Loved the pic of the trees in Sheffield.
Thank you! She’s a great little poser. 😛 x
Best wishes on your dissertation. Stay healthy and keep up that momentum. Enjoyed the pictures. I’m envious of your world travels.
Aww, thank you! I’m getting there! Lots of biscuits to keep me motivated. 🙂
Hopefully I’ll have the opportunity to travel more of the world at some point, I’ve not seen much of it to be honest! Next time, Malta maybe!
Since my world travels include Canada and Mexico, you’re way ahead of me. I’m hoping to tag along with my husband once my children are de-nested. We’ll see. 😉
That sounds good to me! 😀 I’d like to see Canada, New Zealand too!
All beautiful pictures, the dog is so cute and I so love the country pictures.
Thank you Francis! She was ever so good, posing for the camera like that. I think she liked it! 😉
A new Diva is born :D. Let us know if you come to Canada. This is a very large land to explore. 🙂
Haha, yes! Oh, I will, it’s on the list. 🙂
yeah 😀
If you like Instagram, be sure you check out Hipstamatic!
Ooo, I shall! Thank you Trevor. 🙂
Thank you for sharing these pictures Eve! They are all fabulous! I live in Leeds so am familiar with The Peak District.
Good luck with the dissertation :):)
Christine
Thank you Christine! I’m nearly done now. 😀 The Peaks sure are beautiful aren’t they? I should really try getting up Win Hill again, but it nearly did me in last time – I’m so not fit enough! x
Lovely – I need to check out Instagram as I am even slower. I use photogene and some other photo apps, but this may be different. k.
Thank you! You should give it a try, it really is good fun! 🙂
Great photos especially “cloudy”, “birds in flight” and “lost in woods”.
Thank you! Happy you like those especially! 🙂
“Across the bridge” is my favorite here!
Thank you! 🙂
Your scenery captures are so poetic, Eve! Excellent work, and good luck on your dissertation! 🙂
Thank you very much Millie! I’m so close to finishing now, just a bit further. 🙂
as an image says more than a thousand words, you have written a large blog this time! nice pictures. 😉
I guess I’m also behind the times because I don’t know what an instagram is.
Love the photos of the cherry blossoms. It’s supposed to be unbelievably beautiful to visit Japan when they’re in bloom.
Good luck with your thesis.
Lovely, Eve! Thanks so much for sharing. Especially those views of the Peak District–absolutely breath-taking!
Aw, thank you Diane! The views are always stunning, no matter which way you’re facing, it’s really something! 🙂
