Egyptian carvings
I came across these carvings in Harrods recently, in an area called the Egyptian escalator (which did include an actual escalator too) and thought they looked really realistic. There were lots of Egyptian carvings, patterns and statues dotted around, all with lots of detail and intricate patterns.
I hope to go to Egypt one day and see the real tombs and pyramids which are seeped in history, but for now maybe I’ll visit the British Museum and see the Egyptian exhibitions there

I think this is a really pretty flower and I like the openness and shape of the petals and the veins that can be seen lightly running through them
Eid Mubarak 2014/1435
Today is Eid-al-Fitr so I’d like to wish a happy Eid to everyone who is celebrating the end of Ramadan. I hope you all have a great day with family and friends and enjoy the delicious food. I also pray that people around the world who are in any difficulties are relieved of them soon

Deep red
The rich, deep red colour of the petals of this flower are quite nice to see in summer and are a change from the bright, lighter coloured flowers that are in bloom at the moment. I think they create a striking image against a lighter background
Seeds to flowers
I thought I’d share a photo of these pretty little flowers which some of you may recognise. Well, if you cast your mind back a few weeks you may remember this post where these little flowers were once tiny seeds, fighting their way out into the open. I love watching nature to see how fast changes occur over time, from seeds and buds to flowers and fruit. I’m sure there’ll be lots more to come yet as we’ve just come in to summer in England, which I look forward to.

Ramadan Mubarak 2014/1435
Ramadan Mubarak to Muslims around the world who are fasting during the holy month of Ramadan. Muslims fast from sunrise to sunset and this year in England the days will be quite long as Ramadan is over summer, but I will try to make the most of it and take things a little slower than my usual hectic pace. I hope that everyone fasting during this special month makes the most of the days ahead to shake bad habits, create new ones and purify heart, body and soul
