- 23rd Jan 2005 - Summer blooms

Quiet day today.

Middle son's partime job finished yesterday
so we had a cv/letter writing session this morning.
Daughter out team managing the under 11 athetics team!
Oldest son adding hard drive to the network
so I can save all my photo's!!
Denise busy in the garden :)

Went on a cv distribution run to local garden centres,
camera over the shoulder... and I managed to use it.
Still feel a bit 'they're all looking at me'
but managed a couple of shots :)

This one made me think of the summer - snow is forecast
and I'm driving to Scotland tomorrow so I can bring back
the bits and bobs accumulated over the months.

There seems to be a rash of fancy wellies on sale
this year.... just looking for puddles to splash in!

Nikon Coolpix 8800
1/13s f/2.8 at 8.9mm iso50 full exif

Yes, it's almost gardening time again.
Mark Elert23-Jan-2005 22:21
Your right it's cold in Stockholm. Not yet time to think about seeds. Best regards Mark

Cool colors!
Guest 23-Jan-2005 21:16
Lovely vibrant colours in this. :)
Jim B23-Jan-2005 21:15
The colours on this are great, Ian. They really jumped out at me on the thumbnail.

And, if I can take my camera to Ikea (much to The Wife's annoyance), you can certainly fire off a few shots at the garden centre!
Guest 23-Jan-2005 21:04
Beatiful colors palette!
Guest 23-Jan-2005 21:02
Lovely bright pic! Would make a great postcard.
Gail Davison23-Jan-2005 19:57
Yup - spring must be just round the corner (please!).
Gayle P. Clement23-Jan-2005 18:30
