Welcome to the Sunday Stills feature hosted by Terry Webster Shrandt. The theme this week is water. The header photo is a lake in Snowdonia.
Author: Cathy
I enjoy getting out and about, reading a lot and listening to audiobooks. I love sharing the books I’ve enjoyed and I’m a member of Rosie Amber’s book review team which has lead me to lots of new authors I may not have found otherwise.
Photography is a hobby I also enjoy very much, especially now I’m using a camera instead of my phone, and take pictures wherever I go. You’ll find lots of landscape and wildlife photos on my blog.
I’m an animal person and have had dogs for the last 30+ years. The breed of my heart is the German Shepherd but my last dog was a rescue LurcherXSaluki. We lost him January 2021.
Other things I enjoy are being by the sea, music, theatre and the odd glass or three of wine.
I hope you’ll visit and enjoy browsing through the books and photos on my blog :)
