Here are two types (assuming they're not just variations of the same type) of the Amaryllis flowers we didn't get pictures of before. Both are in an awkward-to-photograph spot in the greenhouse beside the cafe garden.
Below are two photos of the next type just to show the difference in colour between our Canon ELPH (top) and Canon camcorder (bottom). Note the greens in bottom right corner.
A few things had changed in the indoor garden since last week. One of the Witch Hazel bushes was completely bare, many of the tulips were gone and the Pussy Willow was starting to go to flower (or whatever it is doing here - below).
I should know what these flowers are but I don't. The blue flowers in the top photo were actually purple.
It may be indoors but, at this time of year, we'll take any tree blossoms we can get. 
It's amazing how the colour changes between cameras, and you happen to be using 2 canons! (I've heard their lenses favor warm colours, I'm not enough of a camera snob to know if it's true though.)
ReplyDeleteYour pictures make me pine for spring though, can it only be February 2nd? What did the groundhog predict? Luckily spring comes to Istanbul with a huge colourful bang.
I never know which profile to pick on this thing.
ReplyDeleteAnyway, America's Punxsutawney Phil predicts 6 more weeks of winter. Unfortunately Canada is no different. It's news to me that we have two spring-predicting groundhogs. Nova Scotia's Shubenacadie Sam and Ontario's Wiarton Willie both saw their shadows.

Doesn't Victoria have their own groundhog? Are there groundhogs in Victoria? Perhaps you could substitute a skunk or raccoon. Or one of those huge grey squirrels.
ReplyDeleteNot having groundhogs probably means that our spring is just around the corner. I can hope.
