In the night garden
It is 3am as I post this image, and my two favourite treasures are both lost in dreamland, so what better than to dedicate this to the sleeping beauties :o)
The night is black,
And the stars are bright,
And the sea is dark and deep
And someone I know is safe
And snug, and the’re drifting
Off to sleep

Amazing Sarah! Just lovely. Have you become a RB addict again LOL!! It will steal your sleep that is for sure :)
Sarah Pett-Noble replied
Hi Lisa, yes, I am an addict in fact it went offline for maintenance yesterday and I thought I would explode with frustration !!! I had processed this image earlier on, but got up for a drink in the night and decided to post it … I guess that is addiction LOL xx

Gorgeous macro shot and the lovely dark yet rich colour. Very nice indeed. But one thing….. where is Iggle Piggle and Upsy daisy and the whole gang? LOL
Sarah Pett-Noble replied
Igglepiggle, Maccapakka, Oopsydaisy and gand are all asleep, they only come out at night and they won’t leave their beloved night garden for love nor money!! LOL :o)
Sarah Pett-Noble replied
I think they’re all alseep, they won’t come out to play during the day or leave their night garden, but my hubby thinks they were out on the ale and are sleeping it off!!

Great use of light into darkness here. Again perfect crisp detail and the colour is beautiful.

Beautiful work as always sarah! I love the poem too. Your late night really paid off! : )
Sarah Pett-Noble replied
Thanks so much Jennifer, you are very kind :o) The poem is the lyrics to the program ‘In the night garden’. I dont know if you have that program, or where you live … its very funky and fun, but also whimsical and unique. xxx
