Sunrise framed in my front window
I’m staying local with my windows again this week. In fact, some of them are downright personal! You want to look through my windows? I’m warning you- I’m a very slovenly housewife. You may need to bring your own duster.
This is the view from our kitchen window through the conservatory
The view from the conservatory into the garden. Watch out for spiders!
Our front window reflected in the mirror (no, I never clean that!)
Our bedroom window. Sorry- I’m blocking the view.
Gorgeous end of day photo from the bedroom window. Hello neighbours!
And speaking of the neighbours, isn’t this sweet?
I took some nice window photos in Durham yesterday, but I think I’d better save them for next week. You can have too much of a good thing you know. Incidentally, anyone know of a good window cleaner?
Please excuse my slightly frivolous contribution to Lingering look at Windows this week. Thanks Dawn. I’ll be round to check out some more entries later.

All of the views are lovely, but I’m especially partial to the first two. Love the pinkish sky through those gorgeous windows!

Thanks, Pomme! I was poised outside of a very pretty teashop the other day, dying to take a shot but there was a couple right in the window seat. I kind of backed off far enough that they wouldn’t notice me, and quite ruined the shot. 🙂

I love looking through windows (that sounds terrible!) When I was living in the city I’d take the dogs for a walk in the early evenings and every house I would pass told a story through the lights coming from their windows 😀 I love your windows and the lovely views you have, Jo 😀

Oh, the same here Jo, especially in my case where I love to avoid all contact with people when I can. What I meant was that I do love looking in their windows when I walk past their homes and when the curtains are drawn it’s like I can actually “feel” the atmosphere that exists in that home. There are some homes around here that I wouldn’t go into even if they pay me. Creepy! 😀

Nice seeing where you live and I’m not much of a cleaner either. A window cleaner popped by the other day saying mine needed cleaning and I agreed but said I was only renting the place. He said I could still hire him–I could that’s true. I didn’t though. I feel a little bad about that.
