Sorry to hear that pal, hope it’s not too bad and that the surgery isn’t too serious.

Thanks, the bamboo tree with orange hues was one I overlooked for the longest, then rediscovered it when selecting images for my 2025 calendar! It’s from autumn 2024

'So quiet and subtle is the beauty of December that escapes the notice of many people their whole lives through.' 
A black and white  Photograph by Don McCullin 'From my bedroom' Finsbury Park, London, 1960-62 The image shows snow topped house roofs as snow is falling, there’s an interesting geometry in the way the rows of housing is arranged and highlighted by the snow. In the foreground wires to the roofs are highlighted as white by the snow against the black of the houses, simply a marvellous frame.

It has its roots intact, the plan is to keep it outside throughout the year and bring it in every Christmas. I wonder how long we can keep that forπŸ˜…
