April Cat Update

Things in my life can best be described as mildly nuts at the moment. Work is keeping me in overdrive mode most of the day, my apartment is in need of various little repairs (the biggest of which I'm not responsible for, thankfully), and my entirely too many projects are taking up the rest of my waking time. I envy anyone who has the time to get bored and who manages to go to bed at the end of the day, rather than lapsing into unconsciousness with one hand still on the mouse.

Still, a few things are keeping me just sane enough. Two of them are Lady and CB, who are growing cuter and more affectionate every day.

Signs of spring, Part 2

I'm back, once again after a longer absence that I had hoped, and with an account on a new photo-sharing site. So far I've been using Photoshop.com to store my photos for update on this blog, but recently that site has become inexplicably glitchy, repeatedly refusing to display photos with no explanation. So I've joined Flickr, which I'm hoping will give me fewer headaches.

In any case,spring continues to grace Ottawa, and I continue to try my hand at capturing it. This time, a blossoming tree caught my attention...





Edit: I've just noticed that, even though I only just posted this now (on Friday, April 16), it's showing as being posted on April 14th, which is when I first tried to post it and failed due to a Photoshop.com malfunction. Odd.

Signs of spring

Brought to you by my love for all things springy, green, fresh and small, and by Jeff's awesome 100mm macro lens, a few lovely products of the recent bout of amazingly beautiful weather here in Ottawa:
