A Photo Every Hour - Saturday 23rd April 2022

April's photo an hour date was last Saturday, the 23rd. We'd been on holiday for the previous 10 days, up in Anglesey in North Wales and most of the day was spent driving back down to the south west with a few planned pit stops along the way. 


Here's what the day looked like...

Meet the Photo an Hour-ers

So I've been taking part in 'Photo an Hour' for about 8 and a half years; the first one I ever did was back in September 2013. It was originally set up by Jane from Is That You Darling and she picked the dates but for the last 5 years or so, we've been sharing the job of choosing which dates and I've made a handy pic each January to remind everyone. 

Over the years there's been lots of different people who've joined in, some just for a few months, some who dip in now and again and some who take part almost every time. I thought it would be nice to share all the lovely people who've taken part over the last year - click on the pictures and check them out :-)

If you've never taken part before, it's fairly simple - just post a photo every hour on the chosen date. I'd say nowdays most of us post on Instagram or Instagram Stories but you could post on Twitter or just do a summary on a blog afterwards if you like. And the beauty of the photo an hour challenge is often its mundaneness, everyone posting a cuppa at a similar time for example. Jane wrote this blog post all about it a few years ago, the dates are old but the information and instructions are the same. 

April's photo an hour date is this Saturday, the 23rd - see you there!
