Thanks you for letting me share some of my pics and seeing other people's work. You're right nothing goes above a lovely photo of the natural world we are lucky enough to live in. <br />Thanks you for all your work behind the scenes. I know how sometimes I have to struggle to find time to post on my blog and that running this must take LOADS more time. It is/was lovely that you were willing to do so!Niall & Antoinettehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12699304108340257145noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1252541834240263443.post-55728717003409738882011-11-23T17:46:15.378+00:002011-11-23T17:46:15.378+00:00Thanks for the opportunity to share my art.

Still, it's been excellent while it has lasted, and I have very much enjoyed looking at everyone's pics. <br />You have done a fantastic job, Mandy. I agree that the natural shots are by far the best.<br />Many thanks for all you've done to showcase our work.<br />Life goes in phases, and for me, this is an extremely busy time, meaning I am not getting to post or comment as often as I would like to. I will make the most of the coming weeks and will 'favourite' the blogs of my favourite contributors, and hopefully continue to view your work there.GaynorBhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12971753467966206018noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1252541834240263443.post-659195514552582812011-11-23T14:54:08.688+00:002011-11-23T14:54:08.688+00:00Oh O!

LOL That's okay--if it's run its course and you've opted to retire it, that's an okay thing.<br />I've not doubt it's taken an immense amount of effort on your part--and I do thank you for that. I've crossed paths with some very nice folks and enjoyed the beauty of their world. I've gotten to see chestnut trees and orchids and beautiful tidbits that are tucked away--things I never would have had a chance to see had I not been invited to be here.<br /><br />So thank you for that experience.<br />I'll miss filling my senses over morning coffee--and I'll miss the sense of community that happened here. And boy will I miss your company.<br /><br />((((((((((( the byrdie )))))))))))<br /><br />Thank you.<br />Very small words, very hugely felt.Melhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14408403855260279799noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1252541834240263443.post-5884700614612864552011-11-23T10:16:12.366+00:002011-11-23T10:16:12.366+00:00I'm really sorry that you decide to close this...I'm really sorry that you decide to close this blog, Mandy.

I know the last couple of months I have been too busy and have got very behind. You must have spent many hours working on this blog and I really appreciate it. As Linda says I will miss the friends that I have made on BW but I hope we will meet up on our personal blogs. Take care and I wish you all the best.
