Granny has been down from Scotland visiting us for the past few days. On Friday we took her out as it was a glorious day.
While we were exploring the Surrey countryside, my girls, Helen and Izzy, found a tree with low hanging branches. As children of their age should, they decided to climb up it.
While they took a break from climbing, I took the opportunity to take this picture. I love both the focus of the image and the fact Helen and Izzy look so happy in each other’s company. For me, that’s what makes the image.
As is my habit every Sunday, I have linked this blog post to the #MySundayPhoto linky hosted by the brilliant Photalife blog. Please do click on the link below to check out some marvelous photography from other bloggers.

Lovely photo of your girls 🙂 Sounds like you have had a fun few days with Granny too. #MySundayPhoto
Yes, had good fun with granny. That particular day, however, had awesome weather. Ideal for such photos and climbing trees.
They do look very happy, bless them! The light coming through the leaves is gorgeous.
Ah yes, the light coming in through the leaves adds to the picture. I had a few other images with light straming through the trees but the expressions on the girl’s faces weren’t quite so flattering.
Lovely photo. My son likes to climb absolutely everything but weirdly, we’ve not done trees yet. I think we need to find one!
Glad you liked the pic. Izzy will climb anything given the chance. As you can see, this includes trees.
They do love climbing trees your girls I love the way the sunlight is coming though the leaves great shot #mysundayphoto
The sunlight adds ot the shot doesn’t it? It was part of the appeal of the picture.
Every child should have the chance to climb a tree. It is part of childhood. Lovely photo of your pretty girls.
Thank you Fiona for your lovely comment. I’m v big on tree climbing. I did it and fully expect my offspring to as well.
Beautiful photo of the girls. They look like they’ve grown so much in the last couple of months
Thank you for linking up
Tell me about it Darren. They’re growing up at terrifying speed. And look at your eldest, going off for the night on her own with Brownies.
We love climbing trees too. Anything with low branches is fair game! #MySundayPhoto
Quite right too! To be honest, I still enjoy climbing trees as an adult.
Gorgeous photo of your girls, and hope you had lots of lovely family time with your granny x
I love this, and there is nothing better than a climbing tree and even now I still get tempted to climb it, do you ever grow out of that? x
Gorgeous photo of your girls and looks like it was a beautiful day for climbing trees – love trees like this that are just right for climbing 🙂
Oh this tree was absolutely perfect for climbing. Was absolutely ideal.
