I saw it when I posted Wedding – this post will be my number 1000 on WordPress. I have enjoyed it immensely – the blogging and the photographing. The reading and the friends I have ”met” and – actually – Met. In reality.
Thank you all of you out there who read me, follow me or just drop in to – Leya. I’m so grateful that you enjoy the little things in my world. It’s you who made it all possible and who still are making it possible for me to go on blogging.
What will be suitable for a post number 1000? Maybe some of my favourite photos? Maybe a combination …?
I lost my faithful companion, Mille, this spring. His name, Mille, he got because he was so special, one in a thousand. Mille. Mille Grazie to him for having him in my life for twelve years, and Mille Grazie to all of you for being part of my life. May we stay together and exchange pictures, thoughts, advice, recipes, book and film tips – and so on – for at least another 1000 posts and many more!
I wish you all a great summer – or winter! See you again in a couple of weeks – I’m off to Scotland to enjoy this beautiful and enigmatic country once more. Hopefully it will not rain all the time…as it did for three weeks in 1978 when we visited last. Never mind the weather…I’m so looking forward to meeting one of my blogging friends there!

a fantastic achievement – as you do proper posts words/n/pictures – I have been here 3 years and around 300 i cant be certain as i delete really old back catalogue – but nothing like you magical achievement – well done
Thank you, Scott – but you have such brilliant quality in everything. I try to keep up a very good standard, but I’m no trainded photographer. I just love Nature. and what good it does to people and animals.
Congratulations and here’s to the next thousand post. 🙂
