Merry Christmas

Another Puzzle Solved

Since the earlier jigsaw puzzle was a hit with Mr. M and he wanted a more complex one, I bought him as his New Year Gift a 1000 piece puzzle. He was a very happy man 😉 Almost close to the end of a month, he finished it yesterday successfully and was a much happier man 😀 Here is the progress of the same.

He is already aiming for the third. But since too much of anything is not good, I told him that he won’t be using the third one (which is already bought and shelved and is a much trickier and tougher one amongst the three) Instead, I have got him another surprising gift which also involves puzzles, but of a more intellectual nature. And I hope that I can join in that too.

K’lee and Dale’s Cosmic Photo Challenge: Water

Last time I was here in London, the weather was mixed. Even though it was said to be the onset of Summer I did not feel like it. But I got to experience the proper English Summer (or the heat wave) this time. When I was wondering if it would even rain someday, there it was, one evening. But not like this in the photograph. It was just a drizzle. I took the photograph of the window pane with my phone, but since I wished for a proper rain to curb the heat, I added the rain effect using Pixlr 😉 

I always love looking at the sea, the lake, any water bodies. It is very calming. While we were at the Tower Bridge and looking at the passing boats and the waves of the Thames, I took these two shots of a boat carrying the cargo. Thought it would make a good GIF. So used GIF Creator and here is the effect.
