A rather showy lily that I thought looked a bit tropical. It's amazing what you can find on a neighbourhood walk.

Believe it or not...there is a fence in there. All those flowers and vines are growing near/on a chain link fence.
This was at the Bridge of Flowers in Shelburne Falls, MA. What a beautiful area. It's an old bridge that they covered in a stunning flower garden and made into a walking path. No longer used for vehicles.

... as climate change is becoming more and more evident with more frequent extreme weather events such as heat waves, thunderstorms, drought and flooding - it is high time for more serious efforts!
A gorgeous mineral that I have been trying to photograph for a while. Some kind of silicon. How anyone can accuse me of having a fondness for bling, I can't understand. LOL
Friday mood: looking back what has happened (or not) last week and looking forward for the things to come at the same time ;-))
Happy Fence Friday everyone ;-)

Good luck for COP 26 beginning in Glasgow tomorrow
and that it will have better results than just more 'hot air'
and the further formulation of noble goals that no one is seriously trying to achieve ...
Earth needs tangible actions at all levels of human existence!
A shot from La Grange, Texas. So different from the hill country where I live. But, still pretty in its own way.
I signed up with Airbnb and I have my first people coming on Friday. However, I have discovered a down side to Airbnb. They report all your income to the IRS..;( I didn't see that coming. So, I'm still listing room mate wanted in the newspapers..:).
Thank you for your interest in and taking the time to comment on or fav my photos it's very much appreciated! :-)
