Frostbitten

A back-blip from yesterday as I was just so very tired when I got in last night!

I've always loved leaves, probably thanks to my mum. As a rainy day activity in autumn she would get my sister and I to make pictures by covering the fallen leaves in paint and stamping them on paper. We then made them into calendars for various relatives!

Now I'm still at it, just painting with my camera instead. During Spring I mentioned that we have a lot of helicopters around here to protect the vines from frost by keeping the air moving. This an example of what happens when you don't have a helicopter (i.e. in my garden). Don't worry though; the vine is still saveable and is still producing a little harvest for it's first year!
