I started with first photo (yes, that’s three crows – click to enlarge) and then I thought I have more photos with three birds in my files and then I just couldn’t stop myself! (There could have been more …)
Magies Are Posterboy Pretty
Magpies don’t have the best of reputations but their black and white coat with its stark contrast is just too beautiful.
The black and white is calling for a monochrome treatment. In the second adaptation I played around with the white balance. I like to do that sometimes because it can yield interesting effects. And then I just went colour crazy.

The promise
I had a stroll through the vineyards around here yesterday, and no green yet sprouting there. But the cherry and apple trees are busy putting out buds, even old and gnarly ones.

Flowery buffet. Equine enjoyment.
Equine image. Jagged sculpture.
Jagged Alps. Gleaming snow.

Thursday’s Special: Pick a Word in March

It’s so Easy Being Green
Even if Kermit thinks and sings differently.
It can be a blend-in colour, or sometimes a stand-out colour but for most frogs it’s the preferred colour.
But green is not a prerogative of frogs.
If you haven’t had enough greens yet (and one can never have enough greens!) have a look at my fashonista green post from today.

Could It Be Anything But Green?
“The seventeenth of March. In other words, spring. Desmond, people who think themselves smart, I mean those in the height of fashion, women or men – can they afford to wait any longer before buying their spring wardrobes?” Colette
On a day like this – could fashion be anything but green?
