Suited and booted, this four sat in Victoria Gardens, Westminster on Friday. They were killing time, as was I. A fellow Nikonian got there just before me and got (I'm sure) a much better pic than this...I hope it's here somewhere.

You can clearly see the ramparts and shape of this beautiful fortification now melded by nature. i love the tree growing out the top. This Norman fort was built on top of a Tropical reef knoll as 350 million years ago this area was a tropical sea.

Our star " The Sun " shines at 10AM inside the Botanical Building in Balboa Park -

Orizaba Snake Lizard (Gerrhonotus ophiurus) from Veracruz, Mexico.

Sunlight catches on a leaf of a maple in the woodlands on the south edge of Dorris Ranch.

Walking back to my car this evening, I spotted the dappled light coming through this little clump of trees near the car park and I quite liked the horizontal stripes of light on the vertical trunks of the tree.

 

I'm not really a fan of tree photographs and I've not really done this justice at all, but one of the perks of working on the campus is that it has a great deal of very well maintained green space that's superb when the weather is nice.

 

Perhaps I'll come back and try and do this park justice with some more considered photographs.

wish I'd waded down there in my wellies on the high high tides as it may have seemed afloat...much water in it at the moment.

This is pretty much as captured in camera with the dappled light hitting the flowers (which smelt delicious) and spreading outwards onto the leaves. The leaves lead the eye to the flowers

WABI SABI.Wabi-sabi (侘寂?) represents a comprehensive Japanese world view or aesthetic centered on the acceptance of transience and imperfection. Characteristics of the wabi-sabi aesthetic include asymmetry, asperity (roughness or irregularity.In one sense wabi-sabi is a training whereby the student of wabi-sabi learns to find the most basic, natural objects interesting, fascinating and beautiful. Fading autumn leaves would be an example. Wabi-sabi can change our perception of the world to the extent that a chip or crack in a vase makes it more interesting and gives the object greater meditative value. Similarly materials that age such as bare wood, paper and fabric become more interesting as they exhibit changes that can be observed over time.[citation needed] Thanks yo WIKI,!

Tim and I went for a lovely walk in Sevenoaks today - starting and ending in Knole Park. So beautiful - and pretty damn hot, too, but thankfully much of it was in shady woodland. There were loads of deer in the park, and they were quite tame, but I had a challenge getting a shot as I only had my 10-20mm lens with me. Might have to take my zoom lens next time!

While out in the garden today I love the rose peddle that fell on my frog and the dappled light on him too.
