Go on a walk today and share a photo of something that catches your eye.

This is a prompt for a suggested blog today, from my blog hosts. Every blog I have ever written features a photo or photo’s of something that has caught my eye, accompanied by random thoughts and some minutiae of daily life.

What will catch my eye today. 1st of June 2026?

Let’s just see shall we?

Marilyn Monroe 100 years old today. Except she only got to live for 36 of her beautiful years.

How lucky am I to have lived 68 of my 100 years. Less beautiful, less troubled. Less dead!

Of all the Marilyn stuff I read today one was particularly troubling.

A businessman, Richard Poncher,bought the tomb above hers and demanded that his coffin was placed in his tomb upside down so that his body could gaze face to face with hers for eternity.  That is just weird, entitled and wrong.

The man’s wife had no qualms at a later date about trying to sell off the tomb and presumably her husband’s corpse  in order to make some extra cash.  There were no bidders. There are some strange people about. Mr and Mrs Poncher clearly deserved each other.

Today is a Monday, nearly always a Nana and Nona day care. It is a day of  Ferry spotting.

Hide and Seek.

And Dog walks.

So what caught my eye.

That a ferry travelling backwards actually produces a better photograph than when it goes forward.

Who could ever have guessed?
