The Heart of the Matter-124/365

Posted by Ellie

These flowers are so intricately designed, with such delicacy of detail, I am constantly amazed by the beauty of flowers. These turn into dragons, when they fully develop, by the way.

Always Have Flowers

Original Post May 7, 2014 – 111/365 of the #365 Photo Project

It doesn’t matter if the whole house is being demolished and rebuilt around you. If you have flowers, you always feel better when you look at them. The fallen plaster, dust and chaos fade into insignificance. And what colour to choose? Why tulip pink, of course! What else?

I Wish For Spring – 75/365

Posted by Ellie

Here is another photograph of one of the tulips I was given, this time for today's Macro Monday sub-theme of Spring. Which is what I wish for. Not what I have. I loved the delicacy of the lines in the petals as well as the soft pinks, cream and green. 

I always love to read the comments made on my photographs, thank you everyone! With the construction work going on in the house my computer time is limited and so I don't get to reply to them all very quickly. Please forgive me and be sure that I will get to them and answer each one!

Heart of the Matter – 70/365

Posted by Ellie

Yes, I am still here! Yes, I am still taking pictures for my 365 project (most days). But life is getting in the way. I am in the middle of the demolition of my kitchen including some structural work (stuff you find in old houses when you open up walls). It will be followed by rebuilding, in due course. I am not doing the work as you probably guess, but it means that everything is covered in dust and there is rubble everywhere you look. There are still games of blue ball going on, so generally there is lots of fun and excitement. I am documenting the work going on but that is a private project, not to bore everyone on G+.

Steven went out the other night to pick up something we needed and came back with a lovely bunch of tulips. So this was my subject for day 70 and featured in other photographs after then.
