Spring

Well another day of hard graft in the Waller household today saw me starting the day with a gym sesh while Amy had a lie in because she wasn't feeling too well. I then went on to be electrician (new kitchen lights) plumber (fitting radiators) interior designer (choosing kitchen blinds) house husband (sorting washing and ironing) and finally chef (chicken teriyaki with vegetables) before showering and getting sorted for werk in the morning.

I saw this opportunity for a blip last weekend when I was working outside and noticed the buds starting to come through on most of the plants in the garden. After a couple of attempts this morning to get the perfect macro shot of a newly formed bud, I again messed about with the manual focus and got this. I quite like it even if the background could be a little better. This is our Kojo-no-mai a birthday present from my mum, we even got cherries on it last year. Hopefully some good blips of blossom will be coming in the next month or so.
