I love going out with the camera takes my mind off things for a while me and my dad go out with the cameras together x

I've heard from lots of people that they believe robins represent lost loved ones. In the two weeks prior to my dad dying I saw lots  of robins, but not since oddly enough.  The last family outing that we went on my dad was sitting on a bench and a robin came and perched on the armrest only around a foot from my dad. x

Hello Poppy, have just found your thread via Mod Helen's 'Finding Solace' thread, and am so pleased I have.  (Thanks Helen!)  Your photos of robins are so good, thanks for sharing.  As it happens I saw my little local robin in my garden just this afternoon, and the sight always lifts me.  I never knew about the idea of them being a loved one, so that makes me even happier!  

Do please keep posting, and take care.

Hi Poppy

Being able to share your love of photography with your Dad  must be very therapeutic.  Both my son and I enjoy this hobby (he is far more experienced than me and used a legacy from his Dad to upgrade his camera which makes it feel very special at times). I have a pair of robins in the garden and love to watch them as I relax in the chair which faces into the garden.  Have a peaceful weekend.  Jules
