New look for "Cluttercut"

It is Spring, although you wouldn't know it from the hail outside.

I thought it was high time for an overhaul of "Cluttercut", including a new banner. So we now have a new template and banner. I hope you like the way it all looks.

The banner is based on a snippet from a photo I took this year on Easter morning while at the beach. I was up close and personal with some driftwood, then noticed that the beach looked even more beautiful and clean and bright in contrast with the wood.

Which is what life is all about, really - looking beyond the immediate to grasp at the bigger picture.

Easter (and all religious holidays) are times to spend with family, and to reconnect with nature. I like to spend my holy days outside, in the fresh air, in contact with the elements. Outside, away from the crowds, is where I truly feel at home and happy.

For your interest, I'm posting the whole photograph as it was taken. I think it is lovely, but it doesn't do justice to the beach itself, which is one of the most beautiful places I know.
