Green Tea

Green Tea

Today the weather has been rather miserable. After a heat wave comes a storm, and we have had storms and heavy rain on and off all day. It is very humid (my decision to do pilates at 4pm was not one of my finest) however despite this I have managed to have a productive day.
I got up and sorted out some images I wanted to print out for various photo frames around the house, I cleaned the kitchen, painted my nails (rare occurrence), had a nap (regular occurrence), did pilates, then casually thought about today’s photo.
I don’t know if it’s the rain, or the fact I’ve had a little run of inspiration but I couldn’t think of anything to do. I was in effect “trapped” inside the house which might have hindered my creative juices (I get cabin fever very easily, and love love love being outside).
Tried various idea with these orchids. Felt bad for cutting them from the plant but it is on it’s way out. It’s had a good running though as my mum bought it me for my birthday way back in January and I’m hoping it will grow back (I seem to be the Queen of regrowing orchid plants).

Storm in a teacup

Storm in a cup

The amount of times I have typed “coup” instead of cup.
Anyway, sealed a deal this week (photographically speaking) and kB has got the green light to start writing up his thesis, so we went out for sushi treat tea and then came back and watched GoT and I tried Rekorderlig Passionfruit. It was most agreeable.

Outside of work, this week has been full of the victories. Most appropriate.

Wizard Eyes

I’d originally planned on a shot involving trees. Only to go and photograph some trees and realise that my idea was probably outside the realms of photography and more in the realms of digital art.
As we were going to the OH’s parents for tea I decided to rope his dad into posing for me, as he has a wizards beard.
Ironically he doesn’t drink tea.
The title for this photo came from a passing comment and me and kB linking it back to Adventure Time
