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!






















Thanks so much for the fun month that was, Becky. Will be looking forward to October, hopefully that will be better times then . My favourite one from your posts was the Poppies Perspective, so beautiful! 😍

Thanks for a great month, Becky. It was an excellent topic – easy in many ways, and encouraging some great images and some important messages. Yes, let’s all aim for a few positive changes next month.
A bit slow today, but here’s my final square perspective: https://travelwithintent.com/2020/07/31/a-holy-perspective/

You’ve brought us a wonderful selection of photos and if I had to pick just one I would struggle. I think the extra one here is the birds pecking in the seaweed. Thank you for hosting us for another month – it must be such a lot of hard work for you, but I hope you also enjoy it.

So difficult to choose a favourite from your amazing gallery but probably your handsome pussycat striding towards us. I’m still following the path hoping it will lead me back to Portugal https://somerville66.blogspot.com/2020/07/follow-path-squareperspective-31.html

Final day of Square Perspectives. The end of an era! LOL. Your challenge has certainly inspired me and entertained me throughout July. I think I’ll keep it going myself on posts on my websites.( A sign of true addiction!)
I’ll sure be looking to spot your “odd one out”.

I won’t say anything about being in tune or something – with a final anything the theme almost suggests itself 🙂
It wasn’t planned (the photo that is, the post was prepared a week ago or so), I took the shot while I was waiting for my sister when I noticed the mirror : https://picturesimperfectblog.wordpress.com/2020/07/31/auto-perception/
Oh, and I love the close up of the blue flower (a ranunculus?) because it is such a striking colour. As a cat serf myself, of course I like Septimus best – and I am happy that he grants me the easy way out in picking amongst so many great photos.
