♩ "Pretty little weapon
Ooh my baby smart, and she sharp, and she sharp, yeah
She's a high heel killer
With the moves like thriller
Only five-star dinners
She's a sometimes sinner
Baby ain't no beginner" ♫

Still not many butterflies around. This year I'm even excited if I see a common cabbage white butterfly in the garden. This one was feeding on my woodland sage (Salvia nemorosa). A few moments later it narrowly escaped the Dragon's claws and teeth.

This pretty prism is a wind ornament. I probably won't hang it outside, I don't want it to break.
Pretty Flamingo is one of a group of flamingoes in a local park. They are used to people and sometimes allow you to get quite close. I didn't even need a telezoon lens but could take this photo with my macro lens.
I have finally bought a new Catwa head. I have been in love with my Lona head, and have yet to find one to compare to it. Well yesterday I demoed the Keme head and bought it this morning and made some minor tweaks. So here is the new me, in what I have to say a pic I really enjoyed making and I really like the way it came out. So be sure to pop on over to my blog where you can get all the details.. justapeeksite.wordpress.com/2018/02/17/peek-87/
The poppy blossom in the Waldviertel in beautiful Lower Austria was on my photo bucket list for a long time. So my friend and I spontaneously decided to make a trip there for sunset. This sunset was almost magical and wrapped the delicate poppies in a warm light.
I spotted this pretty and colourful display of flowers on a day out in Ironbridge Shropshire, I'm not to sure what they are called though!
Thank you for the lovely comment's and favourites my friends...
Lucifer Crocosmia after a rain. The hummingbirds love them!! Unfortunately the flowers don't last long. They sure are pretty while they do last though!
“That last week the syringa came out at San Salvatore, and all the acacias flowered. No one had noticed how many acacias there were till one day the garden was full of a new scent, and there were the delicate trees, the lovely successors to the wistaria, hung all over among their trembling leaves with blossom. When, on the first of May, everybody went away, even after they had got to the bottom of the hill and passed through the iron gates out into the village they still could smell the acacias. They could smell them even when they reached London. But that’s another story.” ― Elizabeth von Arnim, “The Enchanted April” 1922
The theme for “Smile on Saturday” for the 28th of September is “flowers in pastel”, and since September indicates the beginning of spring in the Southern Hemisphere, I had a multitude of spring blossoms to choose from. Ornamental apple blossom is one of my favourite examples of spring blossom, so as I took this on the 2nd of September, it seemed the perfect choice for this week’s theme. I hope you like it too, and that it makes you smile!
Malus is a genus of about thirty to fifty five species of small deciduous trees or shrubs in the family Rosaceae, including the domesticated orchard apple, crab apples and wild apples. The genus is native to the temperate zone of the Northern Hemisphere. Crabapples or ornamental apple blossom trees are known for their beautiful display of pink and white blossoms in spring, and colourful ornamental fruit later in the year.
Every sweet little kitten deserves to have a pretty collar.

Some people think Wood Storks are ugly. They resent how they move into the rookery and usurp the tree islands, crowding out the Great Blues and Anhinga who had settled in prior to this pushy intrusion. And that noisy sex that goes on all the time, that clashing of bills drawing attention to what, I should think we would all agree, be done in private, or at least in the darkness of night. Well, I for one am deeply offended. Yet, when I look at this bird, I can’t help but seeing its inner beauty. Yes, I’m a closet Wood Stork lover. There should be help for folk like me, but to hell I say, I’m coming out of the closet and will embrace my affliction without shame! (And, let me just add, this is no laughing matter.)

I spotted this this pretty pink rose in the Castle gardens Bridgnorth Shropshire, I just had to take a photo...

The plasterer has finished such a messy job. Mind I can’t the knock plasterer other than nailing him down to do the job in the first place. His boast was he’d been plastering for 65 years and it looked it. He was nobbling around on bad knees talking to Carla a lot of the time drinking tea, but I have to take my hat off to him still doing it at his age. The biggest part of our job was replacing ceiling boards which I ripped out after water Ingres problems with the sunroom roof a couple of winters back. I was concerned as the job involved some heavy lifting, but he managed and put in two days hard grafted, still having plenty of time to natter with Carla. Now the job is done, the cleaning starts. The sunroom facing northwest is freezing cold this time of year, so we use it as make shift fridge for extra Christmas food and drink. It give my visiting family some exercise to walk to the back of the house to get plate of Christmas leftovers or another can of beer. Todays photo was taken in early November, no clever composition, no dramatic lighting, just a pretty view, well I think it is.

It had rained, and she was picking her way carefully through a muddy area at the Michigan Renaissance Festival.

It is a genus of about 500 species of flowering plants in the family Ranunculaceae. Members of the genus are known as buttercups, spearworts and water crowfoots. The familiar and widespread buttercup of gardens throughout Northern Europe (and introduced elsewhere) is the creeping buttercup Ranunculus repens, which has extremely tough and tenacious roots. Two other species are also widespread, the bulbous buttercup Ranunculus bulbosus and the much taller meadow buttercup Ranunculus acris. All three are often regarded as invasive weeds. Buttercups usually flower in the spring, but flowers may be found throughout the summer, especially where the plants are growing as opportunistic colonizers, as in the case of garden weeds. The water crowfoots (Ranunculus subgenus Batrachium), which grow in still or running water, are sometimes treated in a separate genus Batrachium. They have two different leaf types, thread-like leaves underwater and broader floating leaves. In some species, such as R. aquatilis, a third, intermediate leaf type occurs. Ranunculus species are used as food by the larvae of some Lepidoptera species including the Hebrew character and small angle shades. Some species are popular ornamental flowers in horticulture, with many cultivars selected for large and brightly coloured flowers. Buttercups are mostly perennial, but occasionally annual or biennial, herbaceous, aquatic or terrestrial plants, often with leaves in a rosette at the base of the stem. In many perennial species runners are sent out that will develop new plants with roots and rosettes at the distanced nodes. 12268
