Err.....yes. ;D
Repaired...haha. Sorry
We are still under a few feet of snow here in Boston so some lateral thinking is required. I will give it a shot though.
Yellow snow warning - you could capture a dog weeing in the snow.......
I'm learning something about trying to take photos in mid winter Canada - there are no leaves on the trees and the snow covers everything else. You get about 10 seconds to decide the image, the settings and to take the shot before you get frostbite. And as for flora, they are a couple of deer racing off in the distance. Should be a challenge for me this week.
Not taken mine yet but have it planned.
Are there no flower shops in Boston or Canada, if the worst comes to the worst?
Very overcast all week so may have to go with this shot of Veronica Persica

OK, so this week has been a challenge, not for and absence of subject, but the cold (of which I am not accustomed to). I am also struggling using Photoshop on the laptop as I am unsure about the colors. So here is my choice - I've no idea why this word has been written, but it caught my eye.
Winter Frey

Must try and get out later and see what I can find.
Lots of deer passing through the woods behind our house. I'm not patient enough to sit around in the cold waiting for them to appear so the suggestion of a deer visit will have to do!

Have gone for a totally different style than my usual images. This is my soft, subtle approach to photography.

Afraid I got rained off. Torrential rain most of yesterday afternoon here in the free time I had so nothing from me I am afraid. Now ... where is that cat?
I once knew a cat called cooking fat............at least that's how it sounded when they shouted at it........
