Spring ... although does not look like it outside

Rainy, windy, cold ........

We got up earlier than usual on weekends and walked in the rain to the market in order to stock up.
I did not mind the rain too much. It's Scotland after all.
The afternoon we were de-cluttering the flat and our rooms. It was long due, I even had 4 boxes that were not yet unpacked since we moved 2 years ago .... 
Well - there is more to do tomorrow, but a start is done, which is a huge progress.

My todays blip is a flower again. Playing with lighting and white backgrounds in the studio. I nearly had forgotten how much hassle white background work is .... so I am re-learning and practising again.
But enjoying it.
This is a ranunculus. It will open soon.

The extra is the dying poppy. I think that is probably the last picture I can get out of it.
