yesterday afternoon was an uncommonly dry and sunny day for march in BC, so, marks. and i decided to get out and start cleaning up our flower beds. we'd seen a bit on tv over the weekend about plants and growing gardens and i think the bug has bit at least one of us [i'm a reluctant participant and don't do well taking orders on how to weed, but, marks. is a patient job foreman :-).]. i very much enjoy the finished product, though, and cannot wait to see how our property takes shape in the next few weeks.
today is back to normal and the rain is falling; there's even threat of windstorms! it's nearly naptime for me, but, i wanted to share some images i was hired to shoot last spring for my friends, peter and karen, who own and operate green flora greenhouses, ltd. they needed web images and let me have free reign to shoot whatever struck my fancy; we had a fun family shoot in the greenhouse, as well... even though people are far and above my favorite subject, i relished this opportunity to stretch myself a little bit creatively. plants make for very patient and easy-going subjects, it turns out. i don't think any of them were stressed by how they looked, either ;-).
