What a difference a day makes!  
This spring bouquet, a gift from my dear sister, expresses my mood today, now that I'm finally feeling semi-normal.  (I took this yesterday, before I changed the water and rearranged the flowers, so it's a lop-sided arrangement, just as the buds came out of the florist's box.  But I like this shot better for the purpose at hand than the other ones I took later.  Thanks, Carol, for the lovely flowers.)

DP049-2013.  Posted February 18; processed ditto.

Thanks once again for all the well wishes.  I'll be able to comment later today on some of the great DP's of the past few days, once I get back from a necessary shopping expedition.  Got to put some food on the table!

I've uploaded another shot of part of the bouquet to my 'Seeing Red' gallery, http://smu.gs/YtUzGV, along with an unframed, unlabeled version of this shot, if you're interested.
