Winter pinks by maggiemae

Winter pinks

A photo opp didn’t arrive and I attempted to shoot something which had promise but I didn’t find it. Then I noticed that early blossom had arrived in its odd but usual way! Its early winter and early evening.

Three good things:
1. While shooting this blossom, I noticed a cabbage tree growing in the depths - its not a good thing and I don’t have room to transplant. I was pleased that this was a ‘God’ plant though.
2. Cat was picked up and is so happy, she doesn’t know which place to go to cuddle down.
3. Picking up my book to finish reading at last!
I love this pink standing out so well against the back. Very elegant xx

All the pleasures of coming home......sweet about your cat..can't remember her name! What a strange winter you have....beautiful flowers & buds right among the cold & sometime snow.

Lovely shot of what looks like a spring flower but its obviously a winter one. We have been away for 10days and one of our cats is stretched out on Jeremy's knee getting lots of attention

@chard Singularly selfish, don't you think?
June 15th, 2015  
@maggiemae the siamese is the center of the universe, the other just doesn't like his naps interrupted.

Nice shot. Pretty flower. I haven't read a book in ages. I don't even know how many new books Stephen King has written. I need to get back into a routine.
