Colour Fix

Pot marigold catching the winter sunshine.

This is a desperation blip, not because I had nothing better, but because I'm fed up with greys and other drab colours. The mountains were magnificent today. I took wide shots from out on the Plains. They came out blue. I took shots of the shadows of leaves and water drops. They came out grey. I took shots of the stars. They came out mostly black. I took shots of the miniature snowdrops and crocuses. They came out bland. This stunted little marigold was the brightest thing I could find.

Stargazers might like to look at the Orion constellation I captured this morning. Remember I am in the Southern Hemisphere so it will appear upside down. You have no idea how annoying it is for me to have to read the star atlas upside down.
