Today's theme is Photos of flowers from my phone. I take photos of flowers in my garden using my phone and there they stay. For me this has been a hectic week and so I've turned to my phone for today's theme. So many lovely photos of flowers on my phone, I'd forgotten how nicely my garden grows.
Went with Ilford 35mm SFX near IR film. This is the best of the 36 exposures. Shot on an old Minolta SRT 101 that I just had refurbished. Exposure time was all over the map. I just guessed 4 seconds for this shot.

We're in Missouri. Appeared directly to our north in early afternoon. Heard it was over Iowa. 60,000 ft high but you could see it with your eyes. It was surprising how quickly it moved to the east and out of our view within 10 minutes.
Local TV station KMIZ featured this photo on their 5 o'clock Breaking News tonight.
Today after work, I called my Mother to check in with her as I do. And, she was telling me about the birds on her porch. I asked her if there were any really good ones (they're all good, except Ravens ... who are much too loud and squawky ... always barking to Odin and all), and she said it was just the usual LBJ's which I hadn't heard before, so I said, "Ooh, what are them?" (because I like to use words wrong in defiance of Everything), and she said Little Brown Jobs, and I said, "Oh, that's like my Winter Black and Whites," (which are Juncos, Nuthatches, and Chickadees). Then later, I had a dream (and I was the star of a Hollywood movie ... not really) and in my dream it was winter, but I was in a strange place like an oasis in the desert (but it was a spring orchard in the snow), where it was warm and there were trees with fine green leaves (like big bonsai trees), and the trees were filled with little birds. Beyond the trees was a corridor (like a long stone block path over and through nothing ... endless darkness ... to where it went, I don't know?) But to leave the place, someone I could not see told me I would need a Chinese Wallet which they explained to me was a wallet filled with all the little song birds. Which made perfect sense in my dream, as things do, that the little birds would go in just like bills of paper.

China town is a neighborhood in Manhattan, New York. From ethnical perspective, it's one of the oldest neighborhoods in New York city.
It's probably not as colorful as anybody would imagine a typical Chinese neighborhood to be. But, it definitely resembles a simple Chinese neighborhood with its shops and foods.
I took this picture from my walk on Manhattan Bridge a few days ago. I loved every bit of that visit.
The Chinese Lantern plant has many names, such as Japanese Lantern and winter cherry. It has a large orange to red papery covering over its fruit. It blooms with white flowers in summer but the red lanterns appear in the fall. It grows wild in many places and is popular as an ornamental. It can last a long time in a vase, but don't touch it -- it crumbles easily.
This tree is native to southern China, where a substantial industry once revolved around the harvesting and processing of its waxy seeds. They were thrown into boiling water to remove the wax, which was skimmed off and used to make candles. The seeds were then pressed to extract an oil for use in lamps, as a purgative, and for making oil-paper and soap. These days Chinese tallow tree is grown mostly as an ornamental, and it is one of the few deciduous trees to produce good autumn colour in areas with mild winters.
