Flower Friday: Fuchsias

"The artist is the confidant of nature, flowers carry on dialogues with him through the graceful bending of their stems and the harmoniously tinted nuances of their blossoms. Every flower has a cordial word which nature directs towards him"

Auguste Rodin (1840 - 1917)


I'm rushing to get my blip done this afternoon, as I'm just about to unpack a new camera which I "bought" from Boots with my Advantage Card loyalty points.  It took me about a year and a half to save them up!  The camera is a Nikon Coolpix S7000 - a teeny tiny compact camera with a 20x optical zoom.  It will fit nicely into my handbag at all times, so that I'm never without a fairly decent camera (the camera on my phone is rubbish).  It replaces the disappointing Olympus VH210 compact, which I also "bought" with Boots loyalty card points.  The first compact camera I had several years ago was a Nikon Coolpix too.  Guess what I "bought" that with...?  Needless to say, I do most of my shopping in Boots and use all my double and triple and bonus points vouchers!
