This young lad was a legacy from the years I spent working at a children's home in south London and who used to visit me for a number of years after I left my job there. Here we are somewhere on Dartmoor I believe but the mists of time have clouded the exact location.

We got my daughter a second hand camera for her birthday and she is surprisingly adept at using it - I guess 4 years of being constantly photographed and observing 2 parents take them has rubbed off! She is rather fussy about where things are in the frame!
062/100 - 100 Possibilities Project - I used to lay in the floor and draw picture after picture. Now I often sit at my desk to draw. I was better on the floor, though.
February 24, 2019 - Green and red leaves and buds on an Indian Hawthorn plant. The plant is in a flower garden near the apartment my wife and I rent.
A lot of the pictures I take when it's cloudy turn out like a load of bricks. I made some of them Black&White to compensate.

Reappreciating the hanbok: Love in the Moonlight
This fusion sageuk (a semi-fictionalised historical drama with a modern tone) depicts the romance between Crown Prince Hyomyeong (1809-30) and Ra-on, a young woman posing as a eunuch. To capture their youth and budding romance, costume designer Lee Jinhee created hanboks with a new colour palette drawn from millenial pastels and classical European paintings. The male lead wore this traditional green jungchimak (overcoat) to meet Ra-on at the lantern festival. Its emerald raw silk gauze is layered over mustard silk to produce a lustrous appearance.

The columbine also got moved to a slightly sunnier location last spring... it seems they like where they are. All of them are returning vigorously, with much budding action.
From this angle the plantain looks as if it is coming from the other bush. Budding plants through taking its picture in a particular perspective
a mayapple with flower bud
Mayapples belong to a group of plants known as ‘spring ephemerals’, wildflowers with very short lifecycles (generally less than 2 months). They emerge in late winter, when the deciduous trees have no leaves, making the most of the sun. They quickly and efficiently flower and produce fruit, dying back to stems before the hot weather. Mayapples burst from the ground with tightly folded leaves and a pea-shaped flower. They resemble a folded umbrella, and when the leaves mature, an open umbrella. The flower is sheltered by the leaves as it grows, and in the summer, a yellow or red apple-like berry is produced.
