Since December 2014, I have taken part in Susannah Conway's free Instagram challenge December Reflections posting a photo a day for the whole month based off prompts she gives out around the end of November. Some years I've been more successful than others in posting but where I work, December is one of our busiest months and as a consequence sometimes the month gets away from me and I don't always end up posting as much as I'd like.

I am doing Susannah Conway's free photo prompt for April again this year. She shares the prompts on her website and social media and it’s to help us get out of our head, look around and pay attention to our surroundings a bit more. There is a private Facebook group and the photos can be shared on Instagram as well should you wish.

Week three already! Wow, that's gone fast! Only a few more weeks of The August Break to go now. Are any of you doing the challenge as well?

Here are the photos from week two of the August Break by Susannah Conway.  If you'd like to follow me on my Instagram, where these photos were posted for the challenge, I hope to see you over on my grid.

I’ve signed up for Susannah Conway’s August Break again this year. She comes up with an optional prompt for each day of the month originally, coming up with the idea when she wanted a small break about ten years ago from blogging. Instead, she decided to post a photo every day to her blog for the month of August. This was in the days way before Instagram, although the August Break now it lends itself perfectly to the social media platform. Over the last few years, Susannah has also created an optional Facebook group for the people wanting to create a small online community around the challenge. Here is a list of the prompts that Susannah has suggested for this year.
