the leaves in the alley are turning red.../Höst, löven i allén skiftar till rött.../ Otoño, las hojas de la arboleda van tornándose rojas...

The host leaves look pretty much the same when they are growing on the plant. But when the fall comes, each one dries in its own gloriously folded and curled fashion.

"Crete hosts an extremely rare and endemic variety of plane trees (Platanus orientalis var. Cretica) with about 50 trees being reported throughout the island. The characteristic feature of this variety is that it is evergreen, unlike the common deciduous plane trees.
One of these trees is of great historical and mythological value and has survived the centuries, since the Minoan era. This is the plane of Gortyna, which still stands proudly in the back side of the current archaeological site of ancient Gortys.
The plane was dedicated to Zeus and according to mythology, under this tree, Zeus mated with Europa after transferring her to Crete from [the Levant]*. This is where she conceived her children; Minos, Sarpedon and Radamanthys. Since then, the plane did not lose its foliage again. The importance given to this tree is very clear by the depiction of Europa under the tree in the ancient coins of Gortys."

Every year about this time, I watch the hosta plants emerge and I am captivated. Last year I was testing a lens and this is one of the shots captured.
If I remember correctly, shot with Rodenstock Retina Heligon 50mm f1.9.
Monarch butterfly (Danaus plexippus) on a Swamp milkweed (Asclepias incarnata) plant. As was emphasized at a recent butterfly garden presentation you need both host plants and nectar plants to have the most successful butterfly friendly garden.
Aberdeen is currently hosting SPECTRA, Scotland’s Festival of Light, and as we can't get to see it ourselves, I thought I'd make my own Light Show that can at least fill the computer monitor with some intense colour ☺️!!
Happy Sliders Sunday! 😊
