no light

[OT from cottage renovations]

the personal significance of the phrase "no light" is that it was the Wonder Boy's first words, uttered many years ago.  when they're little you'd think they'll never stop talking, but in the late 'teens and early 20s the challenge is to get them to say anything at all. 

O.K., enough with the maundering. 
time to get on with today's images, taken with very little light.

Bittersweet Cottage garden

during the warmer first phase of winter this butterfly bush out front had put forth some early foliage which isn't in all that bad shape, considering.

the more recent temperatures don't seem to have caused any great harm.  it's seen here this afternoon against some of the last bits of the snow, which this evening's rain should help clear away. 



Parsonage grounds

there wasn't much in the way of light left when I stepped out, and the arrival of heavily laden rain clouds did nothing to lighten the sky.

this image, so dark and creepily ominous, contains so little colour that toggling between greyscale and colour mode in PS has no effect.  it is fortunate that my mood has been better than this image might suggest.
