Always a great sight to see. Hope.

I wish I had a garden and hopefully will have soon. In my local park the only sights that cheer me up are the first showing of daffodils , snowdrops etc. I saw the first fully open daff almost two weeks ago and it is good for the spirit. So amongst all the graffiti, rust, muck, over flowing rubbish bins and dog s**t, these little fellows can bring joy to the heart and signs of possibly better days to come.
Very nice selection of hues in the background here Rob.

 

[Rob MacKillop]

Cheers, lads. The out-of-focus background hides all the weeds which have overtaken everything. I'm not a gardener at all, but as wife and daughter never set foot in it, I've decided to try to do twenty minutes a day, three or four days a week, to tidy it up at least. Let's see how long that lasts!

 

[Glenn Clabo]

Nice Rob...it does make me jealous though.

 

[Rob MacKillop]

You'll get there soon, Glenn. Then you will have a proper summer, which we won't!

 

[Pete Askew]

A sign of hope indeed. Mind, come independence, you won't be allowed to keep them, they'll all have to be sent back to Wales you know!

 

[Rob MacKillop]

And we'll be left with thistles...

And we'll be left with thistles...

Yes and roses, lillies of the valley etc..Lovely " shot " so to speak and kind of somewhat somber attitude in its beauty. Very well done.

Thanks, Ivar.
