Mum's the word

A colorful glimpse at a very small Mum flower, seen through my Raynox 250 macro lens. Didn't have it zoomed in the whole way, though, which is why it's a more distant photo. Just thought the colour and light were quite pretty.

Finding it less easy to come up with photos and actually posting them at the moment - not because I don't have any, but going into my archives is not what I particularly like doing. I seem to have lost a bit of my passion for photography at the moment - partly because some of the things I love to photograph are over till next year. Certainly have lost my passion for going on walks, which is not good at all. The recent snow and cold we had started this feeling, but even though we are having pleasant weather right now, I just can't make myself get out there : ) It's just so much easier to stay home. Several things are weighing on my mind and, even though they aren't taking up any of my time, they do have an emotional effect on me because I know they are difficult times for those involved. My brother in England is in hospital after what they think was a mild heart attack recently. Sounds as if they might put in a stent. And my oldest daughter goes in for her bi-annual surgery the day after tomorrow. My youngest daughter from Vancouver had to move back to Calgary a few days ago, as she was unable to find a new job out there. I will have to really push myself to get out there somewhere, preferably before the snow returns : )
