Dead Tree

Not a lot of difference I don't think between this and the original, I've not bothered with the original

I've used selective colour here and I've tried to bring out the detail in the bark, will try this shot again I think. The tree is dead and really does look rather good nestled between the greenery, I need to work out how to portray this better, WOULD LOVE A BIT OF CONSTRUCTIVE CRITISISM if anyone can help

Ellis has been here today, the weather has been windy and chilly so we've been indoors most of the day, he's a proper little lad now, really steady on his feet and chattering non stop.

The house next door has had no electricity all day and the electric guys have been and dug a big hole in the path looking for the problem. It took 8 men, three vans and 9hrs to sort it out. These guys must have been on triple time or something. While two were in the hole the other 6 sat in the vans reading or whatever they were doing.

Meanwhile we had the extension cable linked between the two houses so at least they had some power. Ellis loved watching all of this.

Not a lot else going on today, just a chilled night and another very late blip.
