Taken on 26 October 2015 and uploaded 30 November 2024.
This is one of a number of several 'frames' taken at the time: I don't remember why I took them or what this is, so I suppose I was in pretentious mode thinking I could produce something with profound artistic merit.
I used to see a lot of this when wandering around the banks of the River Thames: like giant dandelions, possibly salsify...
I approached this scientifically. I looked at Stuff in Google and sought what, to my mind, was romantic, obscure and, yes, pretentious: according to Google the seed head of salsify (and remember, I have no idea if this is salsify or something even more strange and significant) has been known as a Goat's Beard. That sounds good to me, scientifically.

Since my ghost tour photos of Port Arthur's dissection room with the goat's skull and inside the Separate Prison didn't come out this questionable evening photo is here to confirm life after dark exists in Tasmania.
Franklin restaurant is wary about its central kitchen being photographed, but I recommend chef David Moyne's very different menu in a modern setting (its Public Image soundtrack was a blast from the past).
This is Frank, which has great Argentinian food (order the meat) despite occupying the unaesthetic Tasports building's ground floor. I also recommend Da Angelo in Battery Point for Italian food and pizzas (and local pinot is a must). Other places to try include MONA's The Source which boasts a Michelin starred chef, Philippe Leban; Me Wah for imperial Chinese in Sandy Bay; Templo and Smolt.

The great debate: Julian and Messy! French or British cheese?....well, here's my last slither of German organic goat's cheese with hay and flowers. Absolutely delicious - a hard cheese with delicate flavours of flowers and I guess hay!....never expected anything to taste this good....and it looks gorgeous too! Thumbs up to German cheese....thousands of organic varieties I've never seen in the UK...

Formaggi prodotti con il 100% di latte caprino. Questi sono gli stagionati che attualmente ho in assortimento. Di solito sono almeno un paio in più, ma questa è stagione di in cui le scorte non vengono rinnovate. E' il periodo in cui le capre sono gravide, per cui la produzione di latte è molto bassa.
A sx della bottiglia: Blu di capra prodotto in Valle Gesso e sotto, una tometta d'alpeggio prodotta al Moncenisio.
A dx della bottiglia (Barolo della Cantina della Porta Rossa annata 1990) La tometta del Moncenisio dell'estate 2010, la Losa della Valle Pesio prodotta a settembre e la "stratosferica" Toma Fontinata di capra della Val Varaita, stagionata 18 mesi in grotta.
Prossima puntata, i caprini freschi
La qualità della foto, è inversamente proporzionale alla qualità del formaggio... Sono sempre KO sia come PC che come macchina fotografica, ma non ho resistito e, usando il PC di mia figlia, ho voluto pubblicare questa foto, per dedicarla ad Alberto (Big Camera)
...and best viewed large.
Good morning. I thought I would post a few photos of a strange "seedhead" I spotted this past summer for the first time while out photographing butterflies. At first I didn't think it was a seedhead since it didn't seem to have any seeds, but flickr friend Brian advised me he thought it was and might be Goats-beard (Tragopogon pratensis), which after some research I confirmed it is. Thank you Brian, for solving another mystery for me :-)
While it looks similar to a Dandelion wishie/seedhead, this is almost twice as large in size and the pappus, being the "feathery" appendages, are quite different as you can clearly see here. And even though the above seems to lack seeds (achenes), it in fact does have them attached to the pappus as with a Dandelion wishie....it's just that they're not as clearly visible.
Thank you for visiting today...I hope you have a most pleasant day, and while I feel a tad better today I'm still far from being back to normal. As a result my time here on flickr might still be somewhat limited, so please bear with me on that.

Not sure why I hadn't tried this before but it's so easy. My first attempt at soap making was a success. 4 bars of orange/eucalyptus poppyseed, 4 of lavender with lavender flower and 4 of peppermint poppyseed.
I'm definitely doing this again and may seek out an organic base.
They are so beautiful, in all stages of blossoming
Aurora False Spirea (sorbaria sorbifolia) - commonly known as False Spirea, it's a deciduous perennial plant belonging to the rose family. It is also known by its older names of Spiraea sorbifolia L. and Schizonotus sorbifolius (L.) Lindl. Other common names are False Goat's Beard, Sorb-leaved Schizonotus, and Ural False Spirea.
I like the Chinese name for it better .... Chinese: pinyin: zhen zhu mei; literally: "pearl plum".
Sorbaria sorbifolia grows naturally in temperate areas of Asia including Siberia, the Soviet Far East of Russia, northern China, Japan and Korea. It has been introduced as a garden ornamental elsewhere into Europe and North America

A smaller but pretty cool nebula. Looks a lot like a goat's eye to me. I was a little surprised to find this. It's definitely a hidden treasure.

North is NOT up. It is 27° counter-clockwise from up.
I walked around my neighborhood to a reservoir to find a photo for this week's challenge and actually ended up with a bunch I liked (all have been uploaded). It was tough to choose but this unknown weed is one of my favorites. I really like the colors and the light on this one.
I took this with a nikon 70-300mm lens attached to a sony camera using a metabones adapter. This makes the lens fully manual and the only info able to be captured is shutter speed. I do not know the zoom or aperture, but I’m guessing max zoom (300mm) and wide open (f/4.5) unless the adapter increases it to a higher minimum.
Looking out at the Strait of Gibraltar from Goat's Hair Cave, which excavations have shown was once inhabited by prehistoric man. Now part of Gibraltar's Upper Rock Nature reserve, the cave would once have been at sea level.

Thanks for the feedback during the WIP stages, those wh contributed! =)
For some reason I like these noxious weeds. The flower is so photogenic and the "poof" is so huge when it goes to seed. Just have a job ahead of me to get rid of the "poof" in time or I will be overrun by these next year.
