Three Weeks Later: Camellia by darylo

Three Weeks Later: Camellia

Ok, I did cheat a little today. The bud I have been following is not going fast enough, so I went to another bud that gets a teeny more light and is progressing just a tad bit faster! Plus, it has some lovely pink coloring!

I accidentally thought today was Dogwood day too, so I've already taken that shot for tomorrow and will upload it. Then I took some bird shots. Oh, those American Robins.

But I'm so beat from a long day. Started my first day on the Local School Governance Council (I am the Parliamentarian) this morning, worked on constructing a rolling tool chest (after about 5,000 screws) for five hours, took kids to soccer, went grocery shopping, and well, I'm beat. Off to bed. Will upload more tomorrow.

For last week's bud, go here: http://365project.org/darylo/365/2014-03-14

As always, to see each week's progress for the seven trees/shrubs I'm following, click on the monthly view.

Oh, and anyone up for an Abstract April? No foolin'!
This is beautiful! Love the colors and the crisp details. Definitely share a shot of the flower when this little bud blooms.

P.S. I love the idea of abstract April! I don't know if I could do it every day?

the color is so pretty! You had quite a full day!
March 22nd, 2014  
So very pretty. I can't believe you assembled a rolling tool chest and did anything else in the same day!

@danette I cannot believe I did it. Six drawers.--I SWEAR at least 500 screws put in this thing. All metal with a wooden table top. I may just take a shot of it tomorrow so everyone can gasp and marvel at my work. LOL!

@vskolnik I don't know if I can either, but I could try. Spring break will be next month for me and I know the beach and birds will be calling. Hmmmm. I've turned album 3 into my bird collection. Should I create a tag I wonder. Would live to do it with others!

@grammyn I'm obsessed with abstracts these days!! A month might kill me but I could try. Join me!!

My favourite flower, lovely tight bud.

Fabulous bud just starting to burst with life!! I love Camelais so can't wait to see when the flower opens up!!

I am not sure i will be able to do a whole month of abstract - I am struggling with macro for a month!! I might have a go if everyone else is doing it.
