Quebec, which was the most affected province, is doing even better in the 100s, and the rest of the country is almost free of new cases.
Shauna has her car again, which means that we do too. Her two repair sessions combined for ~$1500 cost. Ouch.
Yesterday morning, I took a few more flower photos, just outside our own front door. I was interested in seeing what I could do with the chive plant that thrives almost untended year after year in a corner by the door. I came away with two photos that I rather like. Chive blooms are not as vibrant as they appear in these photos, but I can't help trying to heighten the visual appeal. Actually, I wanted to get them more in the bud stage, but alas, I am a Johnny come lately, so to speak.
I also took a shot of an orange flower that was poking out of the flower box of the neighbour who shares a yard with us. She gets nice boxes, but if we didn't do the watering, they wouldn't last long.
Today's Selfie: my pom poms (or whatever) are slipping to my real hair level, which is my beard. My halo slipped a long long time ago. Last I remember seeing it was when I stepped on it before I inadvertently kicked it to the curb.
I like that second chive shot very much. And I laughed to see how the app decided to use your beard as your actual hair level. Thanks for the smile this morning. :-)
ReplyDeleteChives are good for much more than herb usage as you have shown us.
ReplyDeleteLove the chive shots. Love that herb. The blooms are edible too.
ReplyDeleteLove the chive shots. I've been trying, unsuccessfully, to cature the same from a pot of chives on our porch.
ReplyDeleteI was out quite a bit a couple of days ago in several different locations, and while there were lots of people around, I was pleased that there appeared to be no gross stupidity. A little common sense will go a long way in helping to fight this pandemic.
ReplyDeleteGood news for the numbers! Selfie is looking ok...you all are always very cute. Love the macro flower shots. A bit intense in coloring...but I dare say that was an editing choice. I guess going B&W would look entirely different.
ReplyDeleteLove the colorful flowers. You did a good job with the photography.
ReplyDeleteThat was a good giggle!!!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful chives! I laughed when you wrote about your halo. :) Felicitations on your good numbers! Our American exceptionalism(which means Covidiots and Trumpsters) is driving our cases way back up. It is going to be dire. I'll be flying on a plane in July, but taking as many precautions as I can.
ReplyDeleteI love chive blossoms. I've had a pot of them for more than thirty years. I gave it to my sister when I made this last move, and sadly, they all died.
