Mahonia  by beryl

Mahonia

I have not been out today so this photo was taken just after Christmas when on my journey.in Attingham Park NT Such a bright coloured plant on a dull Winter's day .
Lovely. I just have a question. I thought that photos are supposed to be from the same day. I'm new, and obviously you know more than I do.

@shilohmom Yes it is submitting one photo per day but having been on 365 for 4 years one does occasionally fill in when nothing else can be done -- we relax the rules a little !!

so pretty, Beryl

@shilohmom Batya, just thought I would give you my opinion on the take-and-post-a-photo-each-day rule. I know that is written somewhere, and many are able to stick with that, but lots of us who have been here awhile relax about that when we realize it just can't always work. In my case, I work part-time and tend to take several good photos all at once that I want to use, so I don't stress about the rule! I say, It's YOUR project, make it work for you, which is better than quitting!

Agree with Lynn...in a week I'll be finishing my first year and I was pretty hard on myself to get the one post for each day (be it in my 356 album or overflow). However, decided I really want to continue long term but will have to relax and not stress over the daily post otherwise it's just not going to be doable. I love 365 and all the wonderful people I've met but it is a huge commitment.

Lovely shot. It must be a different variety to my neighbours which has lots of buds but no flowers

@dridsdale ...my thinking too!...used get stressed about it...but have relaxed a lot now..

Amazing for a winter scene. And you are wise to help others see the value in relaxing a bit -- especially after more than the first year.

@dridsdale I find it's much more fun after year 1 and the stress of daily taking/processing/posting can be replaced by particular projects and goals we set for ourselves.

Always a treat to see these out in flower in the winter and the birds do love the berries when they are ripe.A great find and splash of yellow.

Pretty shot. It is good to see green! It is brown and white and gray here.

Lovely photo, Mahonia always look bright even on a dreary day. I took one recently in the most drab of settings and it came out well.
