The blogosphere has some of the nicest people.
Is it our interest in writing that fosters this convivial atmosphere?
This week the Friendly Friday Challenge is collaborating with Frank from Beach Reflections, whose contemplative posts are beautifully written. With my images, he has formulated a thoughtful post on Shapes, one that gives me much joy to read.



I have included some extra photographic images of SHAPES for this fortnight’s challenge, some you may or may not have seen before.




How to Join the Friendly Friday Photo Challenge
The challenge runs for the next two weeks in which time you can create a Friendly Friday post with the theme, Shapes.
Post a pingback to this blog post within the post and also leave a comment below, if you would like me to visit your post.
N.B. If photos are not your thing, your post may include prose, poetry or some other interpretation of the prompt. This challenge is not just for photographers.

A very nice collection of shapes. I was inspired to walk through my garden in search shapes. I noticed how often the “star” .dominates, although in a variety of ways.

What a thrill to see a majestic photo so close, Sandy. A treasured capture by your husband!
It wasn’t until I saw a wedge- tailed eagle, in a zoo, that I realized how massive those birds are. Truly special. The very top of the food chain.

They are pretty big but size can be a disadvantage too. After replying to Brian, I remembered an old post where I described an eagle being harassed by smaller birds.
I re-posted it here

I have noticed some of the smaller birds can be aggressively territorial – kind of a little dog syndrome my mini schnauzers display towards a large German Shepherd!

The post would not let me comment saying I must log in but flicking back a screen when I went to log in so I am leaving the comment here: “I just love that the eagles are bringing down pesky drones! Fantastic initiative.”

Odd. I saw your other comments. It must have been a timing issue. But yes, I was pretty impressed with the attack eagles too!

The warehouses in Trondheim are a spectacle in real life. I hope to visit that city again one day. Thanks for the ping. I will come check it out.
