...and we all seem to have/have had colds. I currently have a very sore throat but it doesn't seem to stop me eating chocolate or drinking wine !
The snow has all but gone now, we have had a big thaw and everywhere is slushy and wet. So I am glad I got out when I did to take the snowy, frosty photos.
My 365 project is almost complete now too - only 1 more day to go. It has taken a lot of discipline to make sure I take a photo each day, and some of the photos are a bit....erm.... random! But at least I have (nearly) completed the project. I do hope I remember to take tomorrow's photo !
Today, for the project, I photographed a tulip from a bunch I have in the house at the moment. I have said before that flower photography is my favourite type of photography to do, and I did enjoy myself for half an hour or so today while shooting it.
This is one of my favourites. I started off using a black card for the background, but there wasn't really enough light to shoot hand-held using natural light, even though I was shooting in the morning. So, rather than get the tripod out or bump the ISO up really high, I used a lighter coloured background card, which I had forgotten I had, to bounce some of the window light back. It also fitted in beautifully with trying to shoot flowers against a similar coloured background, as I have mentioned before.
Hope you all had a lovely, relaxing and peaceful Christmas time - see you in the New Year
