18 months ago I started a thread entitled 'The World YOU Live in...'

Well this is part 2!

It gives me the chance, once again, to say thank you to everyone here at DPC for the wonderful support you have all offered me over the last couple of years and to also say a BIG thank you to Andi (

Ecce Signum) for continuing to be my 'rock'. I wouldn't be getting through each day without friends like those I have here on DPC :o)

Now on to the real reason for this new thread ;o)

The idea in original thread was that you guys would show me how the places you live in look like RIGHT NOW! In the end all the images, many with personal messages added to them, were placed on my kitchen wall in my old flat...here's a shot of the wall in progress...

In the end the wall was full with shots from DPC'ers but sadly I had to move in November so all the images were put into a box, until yesterday. When I saw them I thought it would be really cool to see if I could do this again!

So! DPC'ers, those who took part last time and anyone else who might like to join in... if you have a spare five minutes pop outside with your camera and show me what its like to live where you are right now :o)

Post the images in this thread and if you dont mind me printing them at about 6x4" and sticking them on the wall if you could say so when you post that would be cool :o) I'll make sure I keep you all updated with how the wall is coming along too :o)

Thanks to you all in advance for helping to decorate a wall in my new flat :o)

Cheers,

Natalya :o)

Thanks Deb and Zoe, I look forward to seeing 'your world' soon! :o)

I still have all the photos from last years wall, including yours Deb, and will be adding them to the new ones just as soon as I decided which wall they are going to go on! :o)

Anyone else going to share the world outside their window? :o) You can be in the photo yourself, add a little text or just stick to the view itself...It's just really cool to be able to look at the wall and see so many different places around the world! :o)

Talj this is what I wake up to every morning. It is a joyful experience every single morning to see what's out there.

The hill goes up and up, so all I see are flowers and nature. And now I'll think of you too - although you will be well into your day when my cat alarm says "feed me!"

Is this the size you can use, or should I send you a large DPI to print?

Kevin, you live right by me (well most of the year!) I am at uni in Totnes :D
Natalya, here is the photo I took last year for you too! I never found out how to post it, so it never got further than sitting as my desktop photo!
