I love this rainbow stem. nature is great!

I might as well take advantage of the bouquet of gerber daisies I bought the other day.

Orion plants his left, then swings through with his right as he executes a turn while running free at full speed on scent in the forest near my home...

Weather-wise, the day was nice. While January was mostly cloudy and gloomy with drizzle, we've been remarkably snow-free, so far. I'll take it. One good day is one less chance for a bad one. The rest of the week looks more like a typical February, our worst Winter month for cold, snow and ice storms.

This little program looks for photos on flickr by a given search word. Afterwards, the colors of the photos are analyzed. The color itself gets detected and how often each color is found. This data is the foundation of every stem. Each segment represents one color of the photo, the diameter shows the quantity. The cell resolution in all segments is based on the brightness of the color.

This one comes with an apology to all Flickr friends who first became contacts when they saw coastal views, crashing waves or mountains on my 'stream. A few factors have been keeping me close to home lately, but I will get out more soon ...

Meanwhile, when sorting a cupboard yesterday, I saw these colours together. The orange bowl was a Habitat cheap buy several years ago, and yes, it is wonky :)

Stems and rock before a storm

The variegated form of "mother-in-law tongue" as it is commonly called. I think the secret of blooming is to let it become very dry. Apparently, when a plant fears it will die, it is ready to reproduce to insure species survival. I neglected watering this one.

Painting my kitchen today, "French Blue", which is probably an inappropriate color for a kitchen, but we like it.

Have a good weekend, and I will check your photos soon!

Daisy stems inside a vase of water. They look as good if not better than the flowers themselves!

I spotted this new growth on the bare dirt hillside. I'm not sure what species it is.....will have to pull the books. So glad to see it! Thanks to Odonata457 for the ID.
