Winter Jasmine

 It is ages since I have been out with my camera and I have been a bit stir crazy. I was pleased the other day when my neighbour told me she had some beautiful winter jasmine flowering in her garden and said that if I wanted to photograph it I was welcome.

Although this flower has no scent it is certainly beautiful and is a welcome splash of colour when everything else is dying off.

Here's a splash of colour for a sunny day

I'm staying out in the cold tonight and it's grey and cold so I thought for my blog today I would share a bit of summer colour which I hope you will enjoy 😁

Winter Plumage

This is an adult Black Headed Gull in winter plumage. Because it was such a grey day and because the plumage is white and shades of grey I decided to to shoot this in black and white which I think really works well. 

The only problem with that is we miss the only bit of colour which is the scarlet beak (also tipped with black) and so to give added value here is a cropped image of the beak, in glorious colour...
