After hours and days of working at the computer and a bit in my home studio, today I just had to take a break and enjoy the sunshine outdoors. My garden has been much neglected since the fall and my green thumb was itching to clean up the dead vegetation and see what was growing beneath. Sure enough, lots of green tips popping up, including many nearly buried snowdrops struggling for light. Three hours flew by with hard but pleasurable work (I’m a little sore now). Lots and lots more to do over the coming weeks but it felt wonderful to make a start. Soon, I must start some seeds….

I forgot to take the camera outdoors today but here’s a photo taken a few days ago indoors.

Update Feb.10th: you may remember the macro shots of last year’s amaryllis, possibly the same bulb
