Anne Elliott's photos with the keyword: minimal

Is anyone else haviing all sorts of problems with Flickr this afternoon?? I can't get into the Help Threads to see if anyone has left a message. Also, the uploading is faulty and is stuck without completing the processing, though all three of my images have appeared on my photostream. Oh, it has finally just completed - weird, never had that happen before. Almost everything I try results in a wait of a few minutes and then all I get is the "Oops, broken link" (?) message. Wasn't sure whether to even try and upload any photos. Anyway, this is another of my "waterdrops on feather" photos : ) Not pretty refractions, but I just liked the perfect roundness of the droplets.

When we were doing a bit of walking on the 109th Audubon Christmas Bird Count in the Sheep River/Turner Valley area yesterday, I noticed how the sharp barbs of the barbed wire fences had trapped some of the freshly fallen snow. I've always loved barbed wire (don't ask me why, LOL) and was fascinated by the contrast between hard, cold metal and the delicate fluffiness of the snow.
