Ugh, I managed to pull a muscle in my neck last week and I've spent the last few days walking lop-sided and feeling a bit sorry for myself. At least it's given me an excuse to take a few days off from working and to enjoy the May sunshine.
I took myself off to Somerset this weekend (although driving maybe wasn't the most sensible thing to do) and visited my parents. Their garden is looking absurdly wonderful, I'm glad I took the pinhole camera along and took some blossomy pictures.

When the fuji film ran out I moved over to my camera phone and filled it with images of amazing cherry blooms (tweaked in Photoshop to enhance the intoxicating effect of these amazing flowers).
Lovely photos!
beautiful, i love them all!
pretty! great use of the phone cam (and photoshop, i suppose!). :)
those cherry blossoms are beautiful! (and all the others, too, of course :))
I love that one of the photo shopped
Cherry Blossoms Rowena! It would make a nice card or clutch print :)It gives it a nice vintage look.
Sorry to hear about the neck...sounds like a good excuse to go for a nice massage!
Ive still got your respectable party guests. do you want them back? Sorry to hear about the neck. I think they do massage at the new Clifton Lido.
There's a guy on facebook does some amazing pics using long exposure dslr. Must try to show you.
