A photo from deep within my archives, taken on 14 July 2009. After yesterday's unwelcome snowfall, we need colour. Red would have been better, but I happened to come across this photo late last night, when I was browsing some files. I solved the most frustrating issue I've come across with Windows 7, at least as far as today's "daily three" are concerned, by adding the numbers 1, 2, 3, in front of the titles. This arranged the photos in the order I wanted. Doesn't solve the much bigger issue of not being able to arrange any photos in the order you want. Why Microsoft decided to take away this option must have an awful lot of people just shaking their head, not to mention extremely frustrated and very annoyed! After getting to bed between 3:30 a.m. and 4:00 a.m. the last three nights, trying to get various things to work on my new computer, I ended up sleeping in late this morning and posting my photos later than usual, ha. I'm loving the extra speed I'm getting, after finally changing from Lite Speed to High Speed 25 Internet yesterday.

The vein pattern on a petal from a blue-dyed Carnation - in case you were wondering what on earth "she's found now", LOL. Just loved the colour and the neat design.

Blue for a change, LOL! I post too many orange, red and yellow flowers, so here is a blue "Mum" (?) from Safeway. The weather has been so beautiful today, that I don't need a bright colour to cheer me up.

Well, if this doesn't cause a bit of a shock, I don't know what will, LOL! Yes, this is a blue rose (artificially dyed, for sure?) that I bought at Safeway. I seem to be running a little low on colourful shots as the winter stretches on and on and on, so when I saw this rose, I knew what I had to do. I liked it better in the store than when I got it home, but thought I'd better take its photo anyway : ) I did try a few photos late this afternoon against a white background, which I think I prefer - but pretty well every one came out blurry.
