ReplyDeleteThank you Malar
Deletelove the photos, especially the flowers. happy wednesday! =)
ReplyDeleteHappy Wednesday to you too Kat
DeleteIt's starting to thaw here too, but there's still plenty of snow about yet, especially on the road where it's compacted and turned to ice.
ReplyDeleteIt's mainly on grass here, Jo
DeleteFlowers look amazing! Nice colours :)
ReplyDeleteThanks Dewberry
DeleteNice images - the shot of color with the cold, shiny clear ice - looks cold.
ReplyDeleteAll gone now Sherry
DeleteLovely shots Sue. Particularly like that first one, the contrast is exciting.
ReplyDeleteThanks Janet
DeleteLovely photos, my Chaenomeles is flowering too, I have 'Crimson and Gold'.
ReplyDeleteOurs is just one we grew from a pip from a fruit that was produced by a plant growing in Martyn's dad's garden so hasn't a name!
DeleteWhat amazing photos!!! I love the one of the footprints in the snow.
ReplyDeleteSome of those belonged to the postman OE
DeleteYour photos are lovely! Is the Chaenomeles a type of Quince? Is yours edible? I'd love to grow one on the plot- I guess in a sheltered position?
ReplyDeleteThe chaenomeles is a type of quince Jill but an ornamental one. The fruits are edible in that they aren't poisonous but not very palatable either. We do have a quince that produces fruit for picking on our plot and the fruit from that is delicious.
DeleteI have wriiten about it in this post
That's great, thanks Sue, just read the post, and it has made up my mind that an edible Quince is on the list for the plot!
DeleteGreat stuff, Sue! Very artistic. Very much the sort of thing I like. Very different to your normal style, too.
ReplyDeleteThanks Mark. I didn't realised that I had a style maybe it's just the photos that I use on my blogs that have a certain style. I wonder what it is :)
DeleteLovely.
ReplyDeleteWe've got an old chaenomeles in a corner behind the greenhouse, must go and have a look and see if it is in flower.
This one is at the front on the house Bilbo so easy to keep an eye on.
DeleteLove the red flowers - in bloom now? Lovely shots, Sue - I've taken so many over the last few days, it's going to take me weeks to sort through them properly!
ReplyDeleteYes it's just beginning to lower now Chris. I know what you mean about photos must tag those I've missed. Can you imagine taking as many in none digital days?
DeleteAs you know Sue I am on Maderia at the moment. After those pictures of the snow I don't want to come home! Nice to know though that my chaenomeles might be showing!
ReplyDeleteSurely you'd like a snowy experience Roger - all that sun isn't good for you!
DeleteReally great photos!
ReplyDeleteThanks Kelli
DeleteHello - I've just come across your striking photographs of the ice. It is starting to thaw here and I'm glad about that, but I will miss the beauty of the snow and ice in the countryside.
ReplyDeleteHi Wendy - our snow is far from beautiful at the moment - all that is left is filthy slush. It looked lovely for a while.
