On our kitchen window sill we have a collection of blue bottles. On a summer morning they are very pretty with the sun behind them.

We also have a collection of geckos made of wire and beads, which are a common form of “art” made in Zimbabwe, and easily purchased on the side of the road in many places in Zimbabwe. With a house full of grown up kids the geckos do tend to wander around the house a fair bit.

A cold, blustery, rainy English winter day outside the window made a nice backdrop to the bottles with a gecko climbing on them.

What else is there to do when the weather is too bad to take the camera out?
