December 2nd

crimson and luscious

thrushes feast on yew berries

burst on the frosted

brittle leaf litter

the ice queen’s breath builds pretty

crystals on the oak

We went to Wrest Park, it was cold and icy, but quiet and serene. Inside the walled gardens, a warm haven in the sun. My photos below (all photos © Mel Melis)

Pretty ice crystals on the oak leaf.

March 28th

Magnolias in bloom

colours for the statesman’s stage

his stare set in grey

 

There is a statue of John F Kennedy near Marylebone in London. It’s in quite an odd part of London, the traffic roars past it and other than some scuttling commuters, I wouldn’t say it’s in a particular spot to bring anyone in contact with it.

However, it did have some beautiful magnolias flowering above it. A pic I took of them is above.
