Lost in Translation

Thursday’s Special: Scattered

When things are scattered, they are spread out all over the place.

Scattered can be villages, houses, trees, showers and the list goes on. Scattered can also mean messy. This Thursday, after a two-week break I am challenging you to post a photo (or several) of things that are scattered. It’s a bit how I feel at the moment. Wishing you all a happy Thursday.

P.S. This coming Sunday we are celebrating Mother’s Day and I will be away for the day which means that the next Black & White Sunday will be on the 15 May.

    However you feel the photo is beautiful. Just moments ago I managed to scatter sugar from my coffee all over an orange rug. If I had known the theme I might have reached for the camera instead of the dust pan! Hugs from Poland. Meeting Meg tomorrow if all goes to plan xxx

    Amazing how strong drops of water (or oil?) can look on a metal surface. I can relate to this too, I knew there was a word for how I am feeling these days – ‘scattered’ does nicely.
