Everyone knows how much I love taking pictures and how much I love flowers so, of course, the two things are going to be a recurring theme on my web page!

The amaryllis bulb that I bought for a few bucks when I last worked at the University of Saskatchewan has once again proved to be a stunner.  This is the second time it’s bloomed and I have 4 large flowers on display.  Looking at the bulb itself too, I may have a second bulb coming soon too!  Christmases are definitely going to get more colorful!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

And my parent’s white orchid which has been growing like the weed it is also decided to bloom this February.  Alas, my attempt to do some interesting art with the unique centre of this gorgeous flower was hampered by a wobbly tripod but I’m still happy with the below image…more or less.
