Thanks Hosta. I used to grow the variegated daphne when I lived in Canberra, but our tenants let it die when we were living in Melbourne. Such a shame.
That peacock's stunning, David. I wonder what the other birds thought of it?
Fairy, I don't use Windows on here (my Chromebook). The picture editor is very basic & it doesn't support Adobe Photoshop, but I think I might be able to get something more advanced from the Chrome app store. If I can work out how... In theory I can use my husband's laptop which has a better photo editor, but the laptop is old and creaky.
Since 2019 I've lived in east Clare, in the west of Ireland.
A couple from my walk yesterday in Glen Lyon.I returned to a hill after having to come home because of heavy snow when I was there in January and I'd have been stuck in the glen. Not a very exciting hill, but the views are pretty good.
The Tarmachan ridge from the summit of Beinn Dearg. A great walk
The five Lawers hills which overlook Loch Tay. Ben Lawers (summit just in cloud here) is the tenth highest hill in Scotland and the only one not over 4,000 feet.
Still plenty of snow on the north and east sides of these lower hills.
I'm getting the hang of these self timed pix! Lawers hills from the cairn. No wind - just beautiful to sit for a little while
A nice day out
It's a place where beautiful isn't enough of a word....
I live in west central Scotland - not where that photo is...

Hi Pat, only one branch with flowers, and one just leafy stem.
I've seen it on lots of plants before, but never a daphne. Just thought some might like to see this oddity.

Liri - do you use Windows? I use their image editor. It's good
Fasciation's always fascinating Hosta

Love those. Fg.
Clever you, self-shots and monochrome. Monochrome (for me)changed that shot from an ordinary one to a stunner. 
Whoops......second thoughts, maybe not monochrome, but as near as dammit.
It's the time of year David - not much colour on the hills higher up! Even the heathery summit plateau is virtually colourless
