And the day came when the risk to remain tight in a bud was more painful then the risk it took to blossom.

The fruit bearing clusters of palm trees are called drupes. This is a close-up of one cluster of drupes from a Pygmy Date Palm from my yard. (I also have another variety of palm that produces huge drupes of orange, fiberous fruit, each drupe cluster weighing about 20 pounds or 9 kilos.)
The drupes emerge from a protective pod (also pictured) that hardens into wood after opening. The little balls on the stalks are flower buds which will turn into tiny yellow flower clusters before going to seed.

No luck with photographing a soap bubble against black with beautiful colours, I need more practice.

Experimenting with different ways to make an abstract for bubbles. These are not water droplets at all. Just some soap’s and brain stretching. I hope you like them, I don’t know what I want to submit to Looking close…on Friday! The theme this Friday is bubbles.

The pied currawongs are regular visitors to our garden. They seem very intelligent and don’t mind a snack of a little meat left out, which we give them only occasionally as regular feeding is not good for them or their chicks.
The theme for “Looking Close on Friday” for the 1st of April is “a single flower”. Just by chance, the day the theme was announced, I walked out into my rear garden and saw that the first “Plantation Pink” Camelia Sasanqua in my hedge had burst forth. The hedge is covered in buds, but only one single flower, so it seemed appropriate to select it for this week’s theme. I hope you like my choice for the theme this week, and that it makes you smile.
Vigorous and fast growing, Camellia Sasanqua “Plantation Pink” is an upright evergreen shrub with masses of large sweetly scented single to semi-double, soft pink flowers and a wonderful centre of golden yellow stamens. The blooms occur over quite a long period between March and June in the Southern Hemisphere which makes them very popular. They are often used for hedges or to cover walls.

My dad always kept all of his spare nuts, bolts and screws left over from various projects. They came in handy now and then. I carried on the tradition when I got my own place. However, I never envisioned using some of the spares for photography! I had a box of these nuts that I haven’t used in years.
41 nuts make up this imperfect, nutty tetrahedron (3-sided pyramid).
