“I wonder where the flowers is!”
52 Weeks: Week Twelve

This picture is dedicated to the crazy Canadian weather we had this week.

It was beautifully warm last week – I even busted out my new leather jacket I got for Christmas and have been dying to wear.

Then, last week, I heard an old, interesting proverb – it goes something like this: “A late Easter, a long cold spring”

I probably shouldn’t have laughed and said, “yeah, right!” when I realized Easter was, in fact, late this year.

A few days later, I heard it was going to get cold. Really cold. Next thing I know, I’m waking up and there’s a full fledged snow storm going on outside my window.

Sigh. You’ll have to wait a few more weeks to get planted, tulips.

(and yes, I AM sitting on a metal bench covered in snow, and yes, it WAS very cold ;)

As a sidenote – I never blogged my week 11 photo, as I was really behind/busy; and next thing I knew I was already on Week 12! I also felt it might be a tad redundant, since the photo is of me with one of my Irish Car Bomb cupcakes… and I already blogged about them a few days ago. So if you really wanna see my week 11 photo, just follow the link up there :)

Outtake:

I didn’t like the processing on this one as much, or the way I’m sitting and looking at the flowers. I felt the over all tone in this one was more serene, and happy – like I’m enjoying a nice spring day, not that’s I’m grumpy it’s -7 and just snowed. I think the one I chose to be my Week 12 photo captures my disdain much more effectively.

About 52 Weeks: I’ve decided I’m doing the 52 Week Photography Challenge this year. 52 weeks, one picture a week – each a self portrait.
