Today, May 19th, marks the One Year Anniversary of thechangingpalette.

Happy Birthday to me!

I started blogging one year ago as a complete novice with machupicchucountdown, in preparation for our trek to Machu Picchu, the adventure of a lifetime . With this week’s Weekly Photo Challenge: Work of Art, my recent painting of this archeological wonder seems to be the perfect way to celebrate the occasion.

Thank you to WordPress who make it all possible, to the great people at The Daily Post who have made me a better blogger (I hope), and to all of you who have been gracious enough to follow me on my journey. Over the year I have met so many of you in the blogosphere and have enjoyed your company as we have travelled together to distant lands and shared new adventures.

I look forward to Year Two of the thechangingpalette and very much hope that you will continue to join me on my journey. With best wishes…Andrew

Happy Monday everyone on this Victoria Day in Canada, and a special thank you to Suze of SLR (See Love Remember) for her great advice in her post for the Weekly Photo Challenge: Spring –

Oh, and the trick to keeping your tulip bouquet last for a long time: put them in a vase with only about an inch of water, refilling when needed. This prevents them from opening up completely, after which they usually quickly wither.

Thanks Suze; it worked brilliantly as you can see.
