This luscious-looking apple is a variety local to Nottinghamshire, one of a few local ones recently planted.
Hard to believe it won't be ripe until October and should keep to December, perhaps the single fruit on an as-yet tiny tree is liable to ripen early...
Said to have been propagated by Pearson's Nursery of Chilwell and listed in an 1896 catalogue.
In the North American Arboretum at Durham University Botanic Garden (UK) - I had never even heard of this before, or most of the species there...
Discovered this wasp clinging to my Hilux at the end of a long drive down part of Australia's southeast coast. Haven't been able to identify it yet - ID suggestions are welcome. It's about 12 mm long.
Macro Mondays- complementary colours, red & green
Microcherry tomatoes, these are ready to be picked and are approximately 1.5cm in diameter
By the time I arrived at the location I had intended, the sun was setting behind thick dark cloud. It was fairly dramatic, and I was rather excited.
An angel in a red dress with green wings. For the HMM admin, total wingspan ~ 6cm, so half wing is well withing HMM size limits.
Seen in the formal beds at the Jardin des Plantes, Paris, where the spring planting of orange flowers with touches of their complementary blue is inspired by Chevreul’s colour theory, in particular his law of simultaneous contrast - that two juxtaposed hues will be perceived as the most different possible when the brain adds to a perceived hue a little of the complementary of the juxtaposed hue. For 50 years, Chevreul ran the natural history museum of which this garden is a part.
The stated intention is that energy and dynamism mix harmoniously to create a captivating atmosphere, a poetic evocation of a journey in distant lands, where the warmth of the summer envelops every breath of air, impregnated with the intoxicating fragrance of Orange Blossom. 😉
Chevreul’s colour theory had a great impact on artists and the planting did remind me of Signac’s Setting Sun. Sardine Fishing. Adagio. Opus 221.
The Iceland Poppy they used here, 'Champagne Bubbles Orange' was perhaps the most intensely coloured I have ever seen.
I took this as a possible for MM's complementary colours theme but it's a tad over the size limit. I have a lot to learn about lighting and photographing glass.
Bank holiday here in Ireland today. I'd already picked a "corn on the cob" from our polytunnel this afternoon ready to cook with dinner & have been commenting on a my Flickr friends' various amazing Macro Monday photos.
So I thought hey why not give it a go? It's been a while since I dragged my proper Canon camera out. Photographed on my trusty old purple hoodie HMM!

I was thinning carrots this morning and suddenly found my subject for the week's Macro Monday challenge (Small and Smaller). The 'large' carrot here is just 50mm long while the small one is 33mm long.

FOTO DEDICATA A "MACRO MONDAYS"
Il tema di oggi prevede il lavoro su due colori contrastanti.
Sembrava un tema facile da realizzare ed io avevo scelto una foto scattata con lo smartphone che ritenevo molto simpatica ed originale :
www.flickr.com/photos/64148082@N02/48463610522/in/datepos...
Stranamente è stata cancellata dal gruppo adducendo ad una non specificata irregolarità.
Siccome sono una persona testarda e polemica mi sono affrettato a realizzare questo scatto tralasciando l'originalità ed il senso artistico...i colori sono due,contrastanti e belli vivaci....la pallina rossa rappresenta una delle mie due sfere che stanno girando vorticosamente. Così è,grazie a tutti quelli che mi supportano.

Today's theme involves working on two contrasting colors.
It seemed an easy theme to make and I had chosen a photo taken with the smartphone that I thought was very nice and original:
www.flickr.com/photos/64148082@N02/48463610522/in/datepos...
Strangely, it was canceled by the group on the basis of an unspecified irregularity.
Since I am a stubborn and controversial person, I hurried to take this shot, leaving out the originality and the artistic sense ... the colors are two, contrasting and bright beautiful ... the red ball represents one of my two spheres that are spinning whirling. So it is, thanks to all those who support me.

Have a 😄 HaPpY CrAzY Tuesday 😄
and stay healthy.
Many thanks for all your views, faves and comments.
I understand that ladybirds, like wasps, are much in evidence this summer, due to the warm spring producing an abundance of aphids and other delicacies.
A loveliness of ladybirds even disrupted the cricket match one day at Lords in July.
I found this lone ladybird in our garden recently.
gratitude for all your visits
