Yesterday I admitted that at the beginning of this month I had no idea what my final square would be. Even now as I write this half way through the month I am not entirely sure! So I thought I would begin my finish with a retrospective perspective. How many of these squares do you remember? And do you have a favourite?

A huge huge thank you to everyone who has visited, commented and participated in this month’s Squares. It has not been an easy month I know, we are still living in very challenging times. However whilst a tiny part of me wishes life would return to pre Covid-19, I am recognising that actually we cannot do that anymore.

There are still far too many inequalities in this world. I am hoping these strange times though might be the opportunity for the world to become greener and fairer. It isn’t going to be easy though to change in light of the looming economic downturn. However hopefully we can find a way to hear and see different perspectives. I know we can’t make everything better immediately, but maybe we can make a difference even with small changes. And we can certainly broaden our perspectives!

And all of you have certainly being doing that this month with your squares. A huge thank you again to everyone who has taken part this month. I do hope you have enjoyed it as much as I have. It has been a fabulous month of Squares and different perspectives.

The final gallery of your perspectives will appear in the next few days, and the theme for October squares is scheduled to be announced in September. So enjoy August making some small changes; whatever you can do will make a difference.

And if you have a spare moment today why not see if you can spot which of the squares in this post didn’t actually appear in this month’s challenge. I swapped it for a Hampshire view in Wednesday’s post, but decided I would leave it in today’s!

  1. Phew! You must be breathing a sigh of relief Becky. I hope it’s fun for you too, but I realise it’s an incredible effort to keep tabs on us all, and keep that squares ship afloat. Well done. Here’s a virtual bunch of flowers for you. https://margaret21.wordpress.com/2020/07/31/flowers-for-the-queen-of-squares/ I’ve got an idea about which photo didn’t make the cut, but I’ll know tomorrow evening.

    Ooops, no, I’ve changed my mind. I HAVE seen that one.

  3. You’re a lovely lady and you put so much effort into this challenge. Actually, you put a lot of effort into life. It is much appreciated, Becky. A couple of favourites but one I really love is that swathe of poppies. 🙂 🙂 Couldn’t get a ride on the little puffer at Barril yesterday. Too many people waiting. Here comes August!

      1. One very tired small boy trailing along the causeway back to the car, having walked out with the promise of a ride back. 😦 But people are mostly being respectful and distancing.

  4. Boom! Done it! (Flicks fingers in that awkward-looking way!) https://wp.me/pVkLb-57v Sorry, Becky, don’t know what came over me there (31 squares…me!).
    I can remember all of your photos, but for the life of me cannot see the one that hasn’t yet been posted. You know I know its there, but I just can’t see it…

      1. Thanks, Becky! 😊
        It’s playing with our minds! We’re used to spotting what isn’t there, but not very good at spotting what hasn’t been there!

  5. A terrific final post for July Squares and the Perspectives challenge you threw out to us, Becky. As always, it was a pleasure to be able to join the fun. (I have no idea which photo didn’t make the cut.)

  6. Lovely gallery for the last square.
    i´m still having problems with the “like button” and in some cases also in commenting. It is so frustrating. Still waiting for an answer from wordpress.
