Where's the best place for our fabulous photo?


Some time ago, at the Secret Portal behind the Intergalactic Cacti, a beautiful shell photograph arrived for me from Country Girl!
*
The whole family fell in love with its subtle colours and entrancing spiral shape receding softly into the background.
*
After having it framed, we have nexperimented with hanging it in various rooms. As usual, the family all want to hang it in different places ... I'm calling on you, dear bloggy friends, to help us in the nexciting task of deciding!


I rather like it by the fireplace, near Derrick's Melrose photos, so I can gaze at it in comfort from my rocking chair ...
*
Uncle Girth thinks it should be in the hall by the front door, so it's the first thing people see on entering Necky Knoll House.
*

Our toddler son, Littl' Nicky says that as his neck is not yet as long as ours, he cannot see it when it's too high - so how about just above the work surface in the kitchen?
*


Both Nexi and Nektareeni think that a shell is a good subject to have in the bathroom. But Maureen pointed out that it may get spoiled by all the steam and condensation.
*


She suggested hanging it just outside the bathroom on the landing. We tried it there just as Necky Becky was climbing the ladder up to her attic bedroom.
*


"Ooh!" she yelled, "I want it! In my secret attic room!"
*
Sounds familiar! But it wouldn't benefit the rest of us, as she doesn't allow anyone in her room ...
*Over to you! Where would you hang the lovely shell photo if you lived in our house?
*And of course, a big giraffy Thank You to Country Girl for our wonderful present! Do visit her blog, Chronicles of a Country Girl, and see all her beautiful photographs.
