Okay, it snowed. I got my birds in the snow pics. I’m ready for winter to be over now…
I seriously spent all day Sunday taking photos of the birds in the snow.
Lots of birds in the snow.
They were cold little birdies, let me tell you.
The cardinals always make such a nice splash of color for me.
The snow kind of came and went all day. I used different lenses, different settings. Then, I played with processing the photos all afternoon.
Why, yes, I did have a big old long to do list…that didn’t get finished. Bummer.
But I sure had an excellent time playing with the birdies! So, there is really no need for winter to stay around anymore. I got my birds in the snow photos. I’m pretty much over winter now…
Winter, that is.
I’m tired of looking out at this.
I’m even tired of trying to get the perfect snowflake macro shot. (Haven’t gotten a good one yet.)
Tired of draping a shawl over me to pull up and keep my camera dry. Tired of the gray. Tired of the cold. (SuperGuy sneakily took these two shots)
I want to be sitting down there in our courtyard, sipping a martini with SuperGuy and discussing our days. Sigh. Have I mentioned a time or a million that I’m not a winter person?
I’m feeling the need to go hide out from winter.
I’m thinking a nice long hot bath, a glass of wine, and some candles. :bath: Lots of candles.
Doesn’t that sound like a nice way to hide? I’m really a wimp when it comes to winter.
I. Do. Not. Like. Winter.
As you can see, I’m partial to candle holders that have cutouts. I love to see patterns of light bounce around the room. I keep a box of tealights and votives to plop in the holders. I can see by the photo that the silver snowflake holder needs to be polished. The cute little floral holder definitely needs a new candle! See that amethyst candle holder? I heart that amethyst candle holder. :love: It’s so cool.
Okay, I’ve talked myself into it. I’m off to hide in the bathtub. What do you do to hide from winter?
