South Stack Coastal Retreats, Green Apple Pod
After doing a bit of research into the best place to stay when taking photos of the Summer milkyway near Southstack i found this place. Its a fair sized pod/shed with a double bed+bathroom+porch area! its located less than a mile from southstack lighthouse within the grounds of the main B&B building. the best bit was not bothering anyone when i came back at 2am!! £55! Pretty sure its cheaper when its not during summer holidays though!

These small wildflower seed pods burt this time of year and create what to me look like little torches.

Sometimes I just like to pick things up from the sidewalk, and sometimes I just like to stick things in my hair.
Here is the result of both tendencies.
Designed for low-altitude cargo transportation, the C27 is used extensively in shipping yards across the galaxy, with many corporations outfitting craft with additional grasping arms or manoeuvring jets for handling more varied cargo.
I doubt this would sit well in the Star Wars galaxy due to its small size but I had a lot of fun building this little guy none the less! :D

Adult hippos move at speeds up to 8 km/h (5 mph) in water; typically resurfacing to breathe every three to five minutes. The young have to breathe every two to three minutes. The process of surfacing and breathing is subconscious: a hippo sleeping underwater will rise and breathe without waking up. A hippo closes its nostrils when it submerges into the water. As with fish and turtles on a coral reef, hippos occasionally visit cleaning stations and signal, by opening their mouths wide, their readiness for being cleaned of parasites by certain species of fishes. This is an example of mutualism in which the hippo benefits from the cleaning, while the fish receive food. Although hippos lie close to each other, they do not seem to form social bonds except between mothers and daughters, and they are not social animals. The reason they huddle close together is unknown. Hippopotamuses are territorial only in water, where a bull presides over a small stretch of river, on average 250 m (270 yds) in length, and containing 10 females. The largest pods can contain over 100 hippos.

I have a large poppy plant in a pot, bought last year. It survived the winter and has now flowered and gone to seed. A neighbour has/had some of these in his garden, not sure if they're still there. I was hoping my poppy would have been pollinated from his plants, but as these pods haven't opened, I'm guessing not. A candidate for 28th July Macro Mondays, but I went with the moss fern instead.
Quisiera emprender el vuelo, poder alejarme de todo
Renacer en el tiempo, recuperar mis sueños perdidos
Abrir las alas de mis encuentros y desencuentros
Quisiera poder volar al mundo que he olvidado, al tiempo que negué mi esencia y encontrarme donde siempre te he soñado.
There are lots of these types of structures in the water all over Lake Biwa in Japan.
I'm not sure wether they are used for monitoring or perhaps warn of shallow water - either way they are pretty photogenic!
