Musings

Photofun

Evening sky, brighter than my eyes saw, as usual with the Apple technology.

Burgeoning plants

The weedy onions are rising and pollen (not shown) is adrift.

Reality vs altered reality

Sunsettiness

Here’s the history of this image. I stepped out for the post-sunset glow, and the image I preferred was wide-angle. In the app, I reduced the keystoning inherent in wide-angle images with my phone’s lens. [I get tired of looking at keystoned images.] Somehow, it looks…altered, funny, not quite real. With or without keystoning, aren’t both images “real?”

Small world

Moss-world is flourishing these days, including on this aging wall of decaying concrete.

Pairs, mostly

One great blue heron, two mallards (left).

Two turtles, two fish.

Two-part building.

Old Fourth Ward Park includes a flood-water pond that retains water year-round, presently green with algae. These days, tall buildings mostly surround it.

Warming week

A lovely dawn-sky…

…heralded a sunny day.

Bloomins

I managed to insert my walk between spates of rain. I’ve been seeing that the Magnolia liliiflora are blooming here and there. I finally spotted one I could approach with my camera (aka phone).

On the home front, the camellia decorations on the hood of the car continue…not so pretty when the blooms are freeze-fading, but still artful.

Unhurried spring

I can tell the equinox is making its slow approach (by the changing time I have to step out for my sun’s-coming photos).

Refresh(ing)

Proof I can get mandarins in focus. Yup, we got another bag today.

Spay-shull

I stepped out for an early morning sky-shot and found con-trails, a rarity I think.
