I ended up at the garden centre today so got a picture of some of the daffodils which seem to be popping up everywhere now. Random fact, Spring travels at one third of a mile per hour  So it takes two weeks for it to get from Land's End to John O'Groats. True story.
PP: Cropped, brightened, increased saturation, increased lightness and saturation on greens, smart sharpen.

 QI is where it's at tbh. Plus for some reason it gets me to sleep so I usually end up watching it whenever it's on Dave

This will obviously be familiar to people on here, but I've put it up under the title of "Conversion", for obvious reasons. In the words of Pow - "Everyone's crowded round the XE conversion; it's like the holy grail".

In-between coats of paint I was taking pictures of birds and stuff (or at least trying - it's hard with a 55mm lens ) and noticed this lurking in the undergrowth. Nibbling on some bread it was Took a few attempts to get a good pic because it kept getting scared of the shutter noise and moving
