This week we have another fun challenge from Ann-Christine at Leya. She has invited us to find Circular Wonders. I didn’t think I would have much to share since the vast majority of my photos are taken in nature, but I was delighted to find many circular treasures, both natural and manmade in my galleries.

Fungi are often fascinating, especially when the mushroom caps are yellow circles!

May you cultivate wonder in your daily life.

  1. You definitely had some circular wonders, Brad. I adore the one of you at two months. It must have been a favorite of your mom’s. I have to say, I felt the same way about the challenge, initially. Not sure where I might find circles, and instead I discovered they are everywhere, even if I don’t leave the house. I especially loved the mushroom and the globe, but the coin collection was a nice add too. So nice. Have a good rest of your week.

  3. Brad, a lovely poem and a treat of photos for us! The petals are mesmerising from your first image, I love the flying marvel and awww, the cutest of yawns! As for the mushroom, it looks amazing but also such striking warning yellow of ‘do not touch’!

  5. Great series of photos, Brad. Nature has so many circular beauties that you bring out with your shots, and surprisingly the one that captured my attention was the custom coin collection you had at the Shire Mint. Made me wonder about the creation behind each of the coins, very cool. And then of course, the one photo which I think everyone admired the most was the last one 🙂 Welcome to world!
