We are really going through some different times. I can't help but wonder how we'll come out on the other side. My mother went through the depression, and we were never able to throw something away. At my grandfathers farm, if we took a building apart we had to straighten the nails out.
So, I'm wondering, we will forever be afraid to get close to someone. We will always collect toilet paper..;)
I noticed the unfolding petals in the centre of this apricot rose looks like the shutters of a camera aperture.
Taken at the Melbourne Botanical Gardens.

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.

"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)
