I wasn't actually planning on posting anything tonight but I just saw this photo and it was just so pretty and pink and lovely I just had to share it with you. As I said it is very pretty and pink but it's also a magnificent macro shot - so clean and crisp and I love that.

I'll therefore for keep this short and sweet, say I hope you all have a fantastic weekend and leave you to enjoy this photo.

Curzon Park South in the snow' by Mark Carline

With all the talk of fantastic weather and the celebration of spring finally arriving I thought I would be a bit random tonight and post a photo of the snow. Do you remember that stuff we were moaning about not so long ago? Well in the UK we were anyway! We can look back on it with romantic eyes now. Was it really that bad and inconvenient?

For me this photo captures that excitement of when it falls for the first time at night and you run outside like big kids to have a look. It looks so peaceful and beautiful but you know that by morning the roads will be dangerous and icy, public transport will come to a stand-still and the local shop will have sold out of bread and milk.

I'll make sure I warm you up in my next post with a lovely hot and sunny image!
