Part of a Jerusalem sage plant. The hairy thingy eventually opens and turns into yellow flowers. The soft background bokeh shows the yellow of other Jerusalem sage plants in flower

I bought a small bunch of different coloured anemones at the market on Tuesday as the colours were so rich and vibrant and this one screamed at me to have its photo taken. It makes me smile greatly and I hope it makes you smile too 😊🌺
(sorry for the pun, couldn't help it : ))
That's the edge of a blue-cyan coloured gel ice / cold pack (gel refrigerant pack) you use to treat bruises for example ... I dampened it a bit and put it into the freezer to get some ice crystals on top of it

A shot of my pot of "rat's tails" cactus which is coming out of its winter slumber and there's lots of jostling for space going on. It reminds me of all those years when I was travelling to work on the London Underground in rush hour! 😊
I haven't posted a bee shot for a few days, so here it is lol. I took this in my FIL's garden when we called in on the way home from Forster, so it is technically part of my little holiday. #349 on Explore 27th February, 2008.
(I might have been reminded a tiny bit of the Death Star of Star Wars; thus the title)

Happy Macro Mondays, everyone !

Macro Mondays, themed crack, no human parts,
This photo show a very small part of the surface of a leather vaulting buck. The vaulting buck was exposed to the weather, on a balcony and not very well cared for, when I bought it.
Therefore, especially at the edges, the leather has many cracks, and partly broken out of the upper port of the leather. Cracks of different sizes, length, shape and form depending of the usage and the exposure to sun and rain.
As for the size, the longest parts shown are shorter than 60 mmm, to many pictures and no ruler
I took this photo from a big clump of Borage in the lane next to our house. I've tried in the past to photograph it but never succeeded - it can be a tad difficult because of the way the stunning flowers hang but this time I managed to find a way.
"Borage also known as starflower, is an annual herb in the flowering plant family Boraginaceae native to the Mediterranean region."
"Borage flower and leaves are used for fever, cough, and depression. Borage is also used for a hormone problem called adrenal insufficiency, for "blood purification," to increase urine flow, to prevent inflammation of the lungs, as a sedative, and to promote sweating."
It's also very popular with bees which of course is a very good thing indeed 😊
