Vernal Equinox

This little patch of snowdrops is blooming in the garden. What a great way to mark the first day of spring! I wrote out the word vernal equinox four times a few weeks ago when I had extra ink in the dish.

My first thought was to use the one on the upper right. I liked it because it looked less like what I usually do. I posted the photo of the page on facebook and several people put in a vote for the bottom left. I eventually decided to go with that one. I used photoshop to correct the spacing between the "e" and "q" and "u." I put the lettering layer on the photo and screened and flattened it to get the green lettering. I then placed the lettering layer on the photo which had a reduced opacity (55%).
