The garden is truly enchanting this morning! The light is clean and sharp, a day to gather some goodies and see what I might create! With the help of my many garden friends...some visible, some not... we'll work up some magic in the garden today!

Temperature 16C, (59F), humidity 88 %
barometer 101.87 (moving downwards), winds NW 6 km/h

No rain in sight for a few more days...at least the humidity and smog have been less intense. A wee reprieve - humidex warnings to return to forecasts by the weekend. Ah the roller coaster ride of transitional weather systems!

With a water ban in effect we must plan garden maintenance a little more carefully. Though if any particular plant appears to be in trouble I may ( I'm allowed!) to hand water with a watering can... Labour intensive but helpful just the same!

There are enough beautiful blooms on the morning glories today that I think I can exploit a few for scanning to show them here...there are other flowers too, pansies and petunias that may soon grace this page!

I think I found a fabulous use for my scanner that will give some interesting results for textures and backgrounds...more on that later...(if they work well I may be open to sharing them in the MindSay community! But...first...I have to play! Ha!

Then if it works you may see some interesting results later in the day or tomorrow...or not...how be you guess and let me know if you were right!

A little PS; (gee!) I was one of those lucky people who had just scanned and scoured my computer two days ago! Wicked worms of the internet are not the kind the robins at our garden like to eat...! I hope those hackers get some major viruses themselves...someone needs to design a worm that infiltrates and destoys the hackers' systems...poof!

Will touch back later if an update seems warranted, meanwhile I'm off to the meadow to gather some beautiful specimens to share with all who care to come take a peek! Also...do stay tuned for developments of a scanner experiment - never dared before!

Live one day at a time...

and make it a Masterpiece!  ;-)
