We might have all white outside, but I do have some flowers blooming inside, so decided to do a little retouching for fun. Do you have a favourite?

I brought in some bulbs in pots last fall, as the leaves had just started to grow. Everything was so slow because of cold, rainy weather. So here is one that has decided to bloom indoors. I am not sure if it will last until spring, or if it will use up all its energy before then.

Some Christmas flowers.

Here is another one that I quite like. Same photo, just a different take on the modifications.

It is amazing what I can find when I start looking through filters and actions I have accumulated over the years. I tried some actions on a flower photo, and I think it looks pretty interesting. I did change the border colour from red to blue the rest of this was done automatically by the action.

A couple of photos of the Steller Jay that has visited our yard in the past few days. It is a new bird to the area, normally considered a coastal bird, so whether it is the climate change or other reason they have moved into our area is an unknown. I understood they are not a migratory bird, so not sure if they will remain over the winter, as the Magpies do, or will leave to find more moderate temperatures. It would be nice if they knew we were going to have a mild winter, and so have chosen our area for winter.
