Anne Elliott's photos with the keyword: P1180475 FZ40

This bright little flower had been dropped into one of the lily ponds in the ENMAX Conservatory at the Calgary Zoo, either by a child or - as another photographer standing nearby said - by another photographer who wanted to create a photo. Funny, it would never have occurred to me to do that. Apart from getting a "fake" photo (in my eyes, anyway), I would have felt so guilty picking a flower! Needed a bright photo today, as it is -30C (-22F) at the moment (heading towards noon)! It's supposed to rise one whole degree to -29C this afternoon (windchill -42C). Expected to be -35C (-31F) tomorrow morning, soaring to a balmy -24C in the afternoon. Wednesday, Thursday and Friday all below -20C, soaring to a high of 0C for Saturday and then back down to -15C on Sunday. Next week should all be above 0C ... sigh. I really need a trip to Safeway, unfortunately, and I had planned to go for back X-Rays this afternoon. I didn't plug in my car yesterday, as I was planning to go back out again, so I know I should at least step outside and do that, IF I can get the front door and screen door open. Had a problem with it yesterday morning - the rubber strip along the edge of the screen door had frozen to the door step, ha! Oh, the joys of winter!
