Different ways of looking at things...

The picture here is of a very common plant, grown for it's flowers..but it's not in flower. It's a flowering currant, ribes but I took a picture of the yellowing leaves in the low December sun. Even in this month a combination of a plant and the winter light can produce something special. I've been hard pressed over the past few weeks to get pictures of flowers, we're in a gap between the autumn and the early spring. The garden needs a few winter flowering plants and I hope to get some in next year, something you can only see after living with a new garden for a while...
