Plants and pictures
Jun. 4th, 2006 07:53 pmIt looks as if the only two of my muses working at the moment are the Muses of Gardening and Photography.
We went for our weekly immersion in the green and we ended up...guess where? To this great little Nursery, who specialises in cacti, bonsai and rare plants and I simply couldn't get out empty handed. I did fall in love with their baby Japanese Maples, but I settled instead for a blue Lobelia and an Hypericum Tricolor, that fits pretty well with the overall colour scheme of my balcony/garden.
I also did some more experimenting with my camera, playing with light and focus on...plants. I have been uploading some of my pictures (including some of my garden) , so feel free to check my scrapbook here: http://pics.livejournal.com/matilda36/ Comments and suggestions welcome, but be aware that I still need to do work on them...annotating and stuff.
No news from my writing Muse. I guess it's hoping for some inspiration from
teigh_corvus travel tapes...

I love my rosemary. It's the second year I do have it and since I found him this spot it has been blooming. I'd love to learn topiary, my plants tend to grow wild easily as you can see from the jungle like images from the pictures. I am repotting my new acquisitions today and probably doing a bit of a reshuffle...I'll take more pictures afterwards.
