My Spring Garden

Most of the garden is in the process of being dug up (all concrete and slabs at the moment) so here are some close-ups of some of yesterdays little lovelies that are keeping me from my computer...

Hyacinth


Buds on the conifer, such vivid colour!


Magnolia


Daffodil


They all popped out while I was finishing off my postcards for the yellow/orange postcard swap (no pics, I don't want to spoil the surprise, though it's not my best work as I had v.bad PMT for 2 weeks).

I was so annoyed at creating things I wasn't happy with that I had to do a bit of graphic illustration to cheer myself up this morning, based on my wallpaper designs, here's a detail...



Oh, I finally added a few more things to my Flickr page, I would have done lots but it was taking forever to work, I think my computer is getting a bit old but I can't justify a new one just yet (though I crave an iBook).

    What gorgeous reasons to be away from the computer and a gorgeous reason to be right in front of the computer!

    Thanks ladies, if you saw the view when the camera pulls back to reveal the building site you'd know why I went in so close.I do always love a floral close-up though. In fact I really ought to post some of my 'proper' floral photo's, I wonder where I've kept the disks though?

I do my best to reply if you ask questions, though it's not always possible when M.E. is bad.
