collections


A collection of pebbles. Collected on a lovely day at the beach. Pebbles in all their forms, are beautiful. I have always enjoyed gathering and admiring them. The different shapes, colours and textures really appeal to me. I love how tactile they are. A sea smoothed pebble particularly pleases me.

I was inspired to photograph my collection of beach pebbles by the lovely Caroline from scraps of us

Caroline has a beautiful blog featuring her stunning photography and adventures with her little ones. She has started a series called Collections, in which she photographs the things that she and her children pick up when they're out and about. It's a great way to record all the little treasures that are found. 

Pop over and visit. Maybe you have a collection to share.

  9. Ah Bee, you always take the simplest of objects and make them beautiful - you have such a talent for enabling us to open our eyes to the simple, everyday stuff of life and recognise that it is all rather remarkable! Thank you! Chrissie xxx

  10. I just love picking up tiny stones along the lakeshores. I totally understand your fascination with them. My collection of little stones would reach between our homes ... and back ;) I'll be sure to check out Caroline's blog, thanks for the link. Wendy x

  13. Lovely. I can't leave a beach without picking up a pebble or, even better, some sea glass. It's fun to arrange them like this and enjoy seeing them laid out. x
