Do I need a logo? I’m not sure. I’ve never taken part in Cee’s fun foto challenge before. But I do know that I love water, and that’s this week’s subject. So I’m going to shower you with a few of my damper moments.

Ooh, look Mum!

Water feature in the Rynek (market square), Wroclaw

A little warm rain in the botanic gardens

The moorhen doesn’t seem to mind

Japanese water gardens always look so serene

Or you can have dancing waters, with a musical accompaniment

Especially pretty by night

I like my water on the wild side too

Or lapping gently at a shoreline

With a few bubbles in it, for fun

Or the odd branch, dangling down

Most stunningly, as part of a “waterfall” light installation
I probably should stop now. My eyes are tired, and maybe yours are too. But I’m not good at doing things by halves, so maybe just a couple of my lovely Portugal to finish with.

Water tickling a sunny square in Lagos, the Algarve

And sparkling in the Douro at Porto

So many lovely shots I have of the Douro

But it’s time to let the sun set, at Peso da Regua
I did say that I love water, didn’t I? And I know that I’m not on my own, so visit Cee’s page to join in with the challenge, or view the many other great entries.

I’d better keep producing them, huh, Sam? No end in sight to the long hot Summer. (funny- my 6WS today is all snow)

Yes please! No end to the heat, more fires raging down south and we still have 6 weeks of summer left. I would like some snow about now although the images of the blizzard in the UK are a little scary.

I manage to sell two of my photos .. with a bit of luck, couple of years ago – we don’t need to be professionals to sell a photo. Post the photo on a website where companies buy images …

You’re more than welcome, Cee. I couldn’t believe that I wasn’t already following you, but I think it was because you don’t have a WordPress blog. Rectified now, anyway.

A lovely selection of watery pics, you make me feel quite like going for a paddle, except that any water outside here right now is either by way of snow or ice.

I nearly included some ice shots, Lorna, but I was overstaying my welcome already.

Maybe there will be a category just for ice, in which case you can go to town with those.
