As I sat in my garden enjoying a nice cup of tea I liked how the late afternoon light was illuminating the grass.

Thanks for all the lovely comments and favs on yesterday's busy bee :)

WISH YOU ALL A GREAT WEEKEND

One more for today, playing, playing, playing.

ODC - my favorite things

Madagascar periwinkle, old maid, pink periwinkle, rose periwinkle.

For "Looking close... on Friday!" the theme: "Bokeh Only".

I had fun playing with this theme... trying to make a photo of my little elephant made of blue and white beads standing on shiny green paper, both in bokeh.

This is the result, not completely satisfied though.

I wish I had had a Helios lens for this challenge (really love that bokeh, it gives), but I haven't... I guess that's life, isn't it?......dealing with what you got and still be happy and keep having dreams ;-))

Have a lovely start of your weekend and a very happy Friday ^_^

Bokeh in winter light.

I found this haiku by Xenia Tran to go along with this image:

"quick to slip

in and out of every dream

winter sun"

Sometimes there is only bokeh and no subject. I keep these odd findings in a special folder. Today's theme for the group Looking close on Friday inspired me to share.

Looking Close ...on Friday! ~ Solo Bokeh

Thank you to everyone who pauses long enough to look at my photo. All comments and Faves are very much appreciated

a white fronted bee eater (merops albicollis).

this kind of bee eater con be found in south africa all the year around.it's a lovely bird and in some areas quite common.

in photography the hardest part is in this case to get the details of the white front.the whites are very easy to be "fired" especially in canon.take care on exposure!
