    Liri - those are beautiful photographs - you should put them on the camera thread too. Your camera picks those droplets up so perfectly. Great time of year for that kind of pic too. image

    Ain't nature grand? image

    It's a place where beautiful isn't enough of a word....



    I live in west central Scotland - not where that photo is...

    Wow Liri, you could frame and hang those!

    Geranium 'Ann Thomson' - still going strong since starting in late May!

  • My OH wanted me to grow Dahlias so he got Dahlias -----

  • Wow.  Those Are Dahlias!  Hope your OH is pleased, Chrissy.  image

    Thanks for the lovely comments about the pearly pics.  Yes, nature IS grand, Fairy...  couldn't have designed it better myself.  image

    I'm really pleased with this phone camera.  I chose the phone because the camera was well reviewed, but hadn't anticipated I'd use it all the time - it has limitations, of course, but the main advantage is that it's always in my pocket for the "take it now" sort of photo.

    Since 2019 I've lived in east Clare, in the west of Ireland.

    Smashing pictures everyone!

    image

    Toad Lily (Tricyrtis hirta) starting to come out. One, of many, plants which I have to keep in a pot to halt slug attack! 

    image

    Another Japanese plant (I have a bit of a theme in my planting!) - Japanese forest grass, looking good this time of year.

    Yesterday, chappy came to see to 2 old, sick ash trees:-

    image

    which has left us lots of firewood and mulching material to chop up

    image

    and he tidied up 2 more healthy ones over by the pond.

    image

    It'll all keep OH busy till we get some rain.
