A photo that got me 3rd place in the #ShareMondays2024 Photography Community. A photo entitled "In the footsteps of Monet."

June 2024 might seem a long time ago - but it is a time in which I remember very well, and why might that be? Because in June 2024 I had visited Peak Village, a shopping outlet situated between Matlock, Chatsworth House/The Chatsworth Estate and Bakewell, and it was after lunch that I ended up having a little walk around the beautiful nature reserve that is joined onto Peak Village and backs onto The River Derwent, as I was walking around what did I come across? Well a pond area that had been constructed and within that pond, a delightful Lilly that was in bloom, I had to stop for a moment and capture the following photo which I did, and I decided to call it quite simply, 

"In the footsteps of Monet."

Rather apt I think as it had a Monet like look to it. Either way I then uploaded the photo to Twitter (as it was back then.) and to Instagram using the #ShareMondays2024 tag, and the photo itself came 3rd in that particular weeks #ShareMondays contest, something that I am very proud of. Not only that but of course photographer Dylan Nardini has also published and created a series of #ShareMondays books, which showcase the various works by this fantastic photography community, and I am very pleased to say that this photo has indeed been published in the brand new #ShareMondays2024 book, which showcases the best photos from the #ShareMondays community. 

Of course if you are interested in a copy of the fantastic #ShareMondays2024 book it can be found here: https://amzn.eu/d/0QD8Wvw. And of course I must also say a massive congratulations to all the various photographers who have also been published in the fantastic #ShareMondays2024 book as well.
