Monday Mystery
Last week's cropped photo turned out to be a bit of a teaser
Dave and Ragged Robin were on the right lines when they mentioned the Moon
It is a Moon lamp. A hollow 15cm model of the Moon fitted with a colour changing LED inside.
I wonder how you will get on with this object
If you would like to make a guess please leave it in the comments.
They will be revealed, along with the answer, next year (next Monday)
Very best wishes for 2020 to all my visitors.

Sunset
After a lovely meal based around British lamb rump steaks there was a terrific Sunset to finish off the remaining daylight.
Camera set to Sunrise / Sunset setting otherwise all as taken with no tinkering.

Grumpy Cat
Penny's Christmas present
She wasn't too impressed with it to start with
but is now a firm favourite for throwing about while I get ready to take her out.

Monday Mystery
No problems with last week's close up
which was correctly identified as
secateurs / garden clippers / pruners, by
Adrian, Ellen D., Theresa Y., Ragged Robin, Dave, Kris and A Brit in Tennessee.
Well done to all.
I was intending that to be the last for this year but in the end decided to leave this for you to ponder over the Christmas period:

Not Just Dog Walkers
Most mornings we see other dog walkers but occasionally our timing coincides with two ladies giving their horses some gently early morning exercise. This morning I asked them whether I could take a few photographs. They agreed and both ladies and horses patiently waited while my cold fingers fumbled with the Nikon pocket camera. Poor lighting didn't make for ideal photography conditions but a bit of tweaking in Affinity Photo helped to bring them out of the gloom.
Another day I must find a bit of information about the horses.

Red Sky at Morning ...
Red Sky at morning
Sailors take warning.
Beautiful Sunrise on our early morning walkabout.
Making the most of it as the rest of the day is forecast to be wet and very windy.

Starkers
It is now the time of year when deciduous trees discard their leaves leaving their branches naked to the world.
That wasn't what had caught my attention though.
At first I though I had spotted a rising cloud formation
but by the time we had ambled to the end of the lane it was darkening and dispersing.
In the end I came to the conclusion is more likely to have been smoke from a fire.

Monday Mystery
Last week I showed these three parts of the mystery object
which was correctly identified as
a wheelie bin aka trash or garbage bin by
Adrian, Kev, Ragged Robin, Ellen and Kris.
Well done and thanks to all who had a go.
Here we have three of these. That green one is for garden waste and has to be paid for extra yearly to be emptied. £40 at the moment. Then there is a grey one for recyclable stuff and a smaller black one for household rubbish some of which goes for burning to produce power and that which cannot be burned is sent for land fill. Those two are free, included in the community charge (local rates), and are emptied fortnightly.
Are you ready for the new mystery photo?
