Autumn: a time to play.

by dorne Whale Nov 15, 2015Nov 15, 2015

I’m making some changes to my blogs and I’m possibly going to bring the two together under Write Dorne. I would like to create one better blog, rather than two mediocre attempts. I’m sure you all get my meaning.

I will give some of the more recent posts another airing: before they get lost in the archives! And in the meantime… please watch this space!

This is a post borrowed from my sister blog My Inner Child.

Sometimes I like to just play around… it’s good for the soul: and this blog is all about the inner child.

I love autumn… in all of its glory.

The mist, sunrises, sunsets, early frosts, the coming and going of birds, the dramatic animal shows and of course nature’s spectacular splash of colour.

I may be called Dorne and yes, it is pronounced dawn, but, I am not a true morning person. So, some of these shots are absolute miracles, as they were taken at dawn.

Here’s a short video, with an original track I’ve put together. I don’t think Mr Speilberg has anything to worry about!

Hope you enjoy and thanks for taking the time to drop by here.

Until the next time.

Well hello there and thank you for dropping by here. I'm a middle-aged Yorkshire lass, who sometimes screws my writing head on and produces articles. Amongst other publications, I have been published in Dog's Monthly and The Guardian. I mostly write about animals ( I've been rescued by two adopted greyhounds), but, I am happy to write about any topic really. I have fibromyalgia and hypothyroidism, and my hubby has Parkinson's disease, so life is a challenge at times. On this blog I have a good old moan, try to offer advice and have a good laugh at myself. So, join me on my journey... as I visit the hospital - yet again and wear rather too much purple. Thanks for reading. Dorne x View all posts by dorne Whale

Glad to know how your name is pronounced. 🙂
I’m up before dawn. And I sometimes may be up before Dawn too.

  I think it’s a very safe bet that you will be up before this Dorne! When I see the dawn I love it and vow to see it again soon. But, my bed is way too comfortable and I sleep in fits and starts, so I make the most of the sleepy periods! That’s my excuse anyhow! x

    I’m up before dawn….because I sometimes go to bed before the sun sets. 😦 Don’t sleep….but I am in bed. lol

    I like the idea of going to bed with the sun…but it couldn’t happen! x

I’m loving the new look, Dorne. Can I ask what software you used to put the video together?

  Thanks Hugh. It’s only a matter of time before I change it again…there are too many themes to experiment with.
  I use the Movie Maker that came with my Windows 8. I enhance/manipulate the images with various photo apps and then get cracking with all of the features on the Movie Maker.
  If I can figure out how to do an instructive post on this I will try. But, don’t hold you’re breath….me and computers don’t always see eye to eye. I spook them and I don’t always get them!
  Thanks for reading/watching and commenting. xxx

    I agree about the themes. When I last changed the theme of my blog I choose five and then got my partner to chose which one. I then picked the one I liked best 😉
    
    I look forward to reading that post.

    Pete doesn’t have anything to do with my blog. It’s not his thing. I am left to my own devices and look what happens? xxx
