I noticed the unfolding petals in the centre of this apricot rose looks like the shutters of a camera aperture.

OK, I shouldn't have said anything about the weather. Sunday & Monday, we are suppose to have record breaking cold her in Central Texas. With, the possibility of up to 4 inches of snow. So I went to the grocery store like I do every Friday and sure enough, people were loading up on toilet paper. It' only going to last for 2 days. And, yes, schools are closing. This isn't our kind of weather. We aren't prepared for it.
Believe it or not...there is a fence in there. All those flowers and vines are growing near/on a chain link fence.
This was at the Bridge of Flowers in Shelburne Falls, MA. What a beautiful area. It's an old bridge that they covered in a stunning flower garden and made into a walking path. No longer used for vehicles.

Variegated Rose taken at the International Rose Garden, Adelaide Botanical Garden during my last visit to Adelaide.
I was surprised how this image turned out. It was just past noon and it was very bright with the overhead sun.
I used a plastic shower cap ( my improvised filter ) which fit nicely into my open palm in one hand to block the sunlight and I took the picture with the other hand.

Across the meadow to Hogwarts.
Alnwick Castle, home of the Duke of Northumberland. This famous castle has been used for various locations by film and tv companies but is mostly famous for being Hogwarts, the school attended by Harry Potter.
The River Aln meanders through the estate and it's a lovely peaceful walk across the meadow towards to castle.
Happy Fence Friday - HFF :))

"Climate change isn’t an ‘issue’ to add to the list of things to worry about, next to health care and taxes. It is a civilizational wake-up call. A powerful message — spoken in the language of fires, floods, droughts, and extinctions — telling us that we need an entirely new economic model and a new way of sharing this planet. Telling us we need to evolve."
(Naomi Klein)
A shot from La Grange, Texas. So different from the hill country where I live. But, still pretty in its own way.
I signed up with Airbnb and I have my first people coming on Friday. However, I have discovered a down side to Airbnb. They report all your income to the IRS..;( I didn't see that coming. So, I'm still listing room mate wanted in the newspapers..:).

Opening Friday, 23rd July 6am slt. I've created a small magical space under the warm waters at Mousehole Region, filled with colorful corals, seafaring flowers, and enchanting turtles. There will be a tp at the main landings for both Mousehole and Frogmore Regions Friday morning. Don your favorite fins, tantalizing Mer tail, or captivating Kini and stop by for a swim and make a pic! We will have a Hunt on Sunday - watch for the details to be posted soon !
