Could not say no to a shot of these , plantnet reckons this could be Digitalis thapsi L / Spanish Foxglove . Nothing to strange basically but I did not plant this at all . And why would I plant something in a gravel covered hardstanding that is just a few feet in front of the garage door ?? How they have survived let alone flower I do not know , but they do look nice among the other low growing bits and bobs that persist in trying an existence in these conditions !!
Shot presented as taken other than a very slight straighten .
Whenever I travel, I am fascinated by the influx of people who I am surrounded by and the preoccupation of guessing whether they are residents of the city I am visiting or tourists like me. I can identify with the feeling of being displaced and somewhat discombobulated first by the every day experience of being alive and second by the act of traveling across the world so easily and quickly in a way that would have been unheard of even a hundred years ago. I do like the idea that we all come from somewhere and yet I also feel like geography might be a cruel illusion to keep molecules floating in space so desperately apart. I’ve always been against the politicization of borders and xenophobia. In my own country, there has been such a talk about walls and the criminalization of humans who have valid life stories and probably a great deal to teach us. The only real danger to the future of America is white supremacists and profit over people, which has been shaping the legislature here fore far too long.
In any case, I like to imagine a Miami, Spain. Perhaps, it is just as warm and tropical but with better architecture and more progressive politicians. Perhaps, you can pacify even the most agitated alligator there by feeding it papa bravas and distract DeSantis from further hate speech and harmful policies by trapping him for an eternity in some elaborate Gaudi architecture.

A little water park up in the area surrounding the Alhambra Castle in Granada, Spain. Green, peaceful, and pretty.
