A bit of a throw away grab shot today – one of our kitchen knives taken with a macro lens.

We’re in catch up mode (most of the time at the moment), so don’t expect long blog posts about the pictures at the moment, at least I’m getting the shots taken every day! Here’s another Primula from our garden – I think it’s a different type to the Primula shown

I enjoyed the lower flower that seems to be trying to escape!

The garden is really starting to bloom after this dry hot month we have had – this will probably turn out to be all the “summer” we get this year knowing our luck! This (I believe) is a Primula candelabra flower.

Just as the title suggests…we received these in place of our usual tulips, very nice they are too.

I took a stroll up the burn this afternoon and took a whole range of pictures but, as often happens, the first shot was the best!

Another shot from the bunch of tulips we bought from the local supermarket last week – they’ve held up remarkably well!
