Photo a Day in May, back in the swing

Life has been a little topsy turvy of late as we navigate through the motions of moving 

home to Australia and getting out to make the most of our time left in Europe.

I gave up my photo a day for a while there as I got quotes, organised schools

and acted as our family travel agent amongst other things.

I got back in the swing with a photo a day group in May, here is my month.

The daily prompt is in red, the photo and description is my take on the prompt.

So many people making connections at the Berlin Hauptbahnof.

check out some nearby towns!

Street art

This street art has been around for a long time...about 5000 years in fact.

represent the movement of the sun and stars...but we will never really know!

Fresh as a daisy.
