Day 82 CD Colour

Another productive day! It was gloriously sunny and at 8.00 am we were both back out in the garden, mowing the lawn, planting the conifers and adding the gravel to the front bed. After a shower it was off to MiL's house to meet Alan from the OT department of the hospital who was doing an assessment before her discharge.  He came up with some sensible suggestions to make life easier for her when she comes home, next week.  Then it was off to the shops again for some casual holiday clothes, mainly for LB but I also picked up a couple of skirts ( new resolution - not to wear trousers all the time!)  By the time we got home it was 2.00pm so after a late lunch we both had a snooze.  We're not used to all this activity! This evening we attended the final Cardiff Scientific Society lecture which was on the colour of fossil birds and dinosaurs.  It wasn't so much about what colour they were as to how the scientists are discovering ways of determining colour, so far largely in feathers.  The research has been done on the huge number of fossils, both birds and dinosaurs, found in China with feathers. Needless to say it was extremely interesting although I couldn't help wondering how the creationists would react to it.


Anyway after getting home and eating it was nearly 10.00 before I got around to photos. I tried another classic shot of refracted light off a cd with water droplets. They're a bit static but very pretty! Here's number one
