so wrong ,we have actually had a rare event in the u.k ,two days of fairly good sunshine ,i have over a thousand shots to go though and probably delete 959 of them .actually not had light levels this good since october time can't believe it and i actually got out and done some gardening today as well .
now that brings me to something thats bugged me for years but never thought to ask it .in the u.k we have houses ,small ,medium ,large etc the one thing in common is we all have gardens ,so when out there working we are gardening
now in the states your back gardens are referred to as yards ,so when your working in your back yard planting flowers etc what are you doing is it called yarding or some other weird name ??????:-O
So glad to see European photographers are ok.
1000 photos Jeff, I hope they are bird photos and you will share some of your usual amazing shots.
Yards and gardens. Very complicated issue Jeff. I suppose it can change drastically by what region of the country you live in. Now, I have a front and back yard. I suppose the parts where there are flowers and ornamental shrubs, etc. could be called a garden. The yard is grass (not the type you smoke) but little green things that sprout up out of the soil.
I have to say nothing about a yard or garden is inviting to me. I call it all WORK. Left to my own devices, I would have the entire thing covered in astro turf and plastic trees that did not drop tons of leaves each year.
I admire folks who like to garden or work to make a beautiful grass yard/lawn. Damn another word - lawn. Forget it Jeff - it's just indescribable!
