Hap­py new year! :D

The first day of 2011 is unusu­al­ly mild. We woke up to a thick veil of fog out­side our win­dow. We went out to our bal­cony and it was like step­ping into a cloud. It felt strange­ly serene.

 

 

 

 

I joined the Zumi group on Flickr and saw lots of cool black and white pic­tures. I thought I don’t use the black and white mode quite enough and so here’s a B&W pic­ture of the fog­gy neighbourhood.

 

 

And when we went back inside for break­fast I heard the bird­s chirp­ing, which remind­ed me of this quote I read on Duo Fiber­works:

“I heard a bird sing
In the dark of December
A mag­i­cal thing
And sweet to remember.

‘We are near­er to Spring
Than we were in September,’
I heard a bird sing
In the dark of December.”

- Oliv­er Her­ford, I Heard a Bird Sing

 

Wish­ing every­one a healthy and won­der­ful 2011!
