    Beautifully observed & captured @Papi Jo.

    For interest, what do you do with your camera & lens after taking them out in the cold? Do you bring them up to house temperature slowly, eg. by leaving them in the garage for a while?
    Clay soil - Cheshire/Derbyshire border

    I play with plants and soil and sometimes it's successful

    Thanks! I don't to anything special re the change of temperature. I expect it depends on the type of camera. The only occasion when I had condensation on my lenses was when shooting butterflies in a butterfly tropical greenhouse.

    Oh, such lovely camellias. Sigh. They can be so special. They come on the list of "for my next garden". Thanks for sharing.

    Very nice combinations @Papi Jo!  That Phormium is very attractive with the lighter margins which seem to glow in the sun😎.
    Wirral. Sandy, free draining soil.

    Gorgeous narcissi @Papi Jo and the combination of pink heather and camellia is lovely.

    Thanks! Yes, those Paperwhite Narcissus look lovely. Too bad I hate their weird smell. More on their "odour' topic here on the forum Paperwhite Narcissus: sweet or foul smell? and here on my garden site: Why do my Paperwhites stink?
