Lone daffy in taxus

Lotsa rain overnight, and a variable day, including actual sunshine. This was when it was still overcast.

White lying

Daffies

Today was rainy and murky, so this is a yesterday-photo, because sometimes time-shifting is a happy strategem.

RR ≠ always railroad

I don’t know why, but the neighbor’s fancy ride, which is usually only parked in his garage, was out in the elephants.

Variable weather

Last week, we saw some highs over 70°F (aka too hot for Feb—for me). This week we’re seeing lows below freezing, which means frost on The Vehicle this morning (and rather cold for me). Next up: rain (we’re in deficit, so rain is good good).

Lucky seven?

Let’s do some time-hopping. This is seven months ago, when I was in the northland, and sunrise was before seven AM.

Simple pleasure (ish)

As I did a bit of photo tweaking, I thought: harhar, I’m cropping the new crop of camellia buds.

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.
