The very pesky teeny weeny white snails are returning to the garden and I caught this one attaching itself to a flowering chive in the herb bed
The lavender in the garden is in full swing. I took this shot in front of the large oleander bush with its pink blossoms
A very closeup photo of part of a sunflower from the garden. We always plant a row of them in the Spring and after a slow start this year they eventually came out in full bloom and standing (very) tall :-)
Red garlic, cut in half, there are small cloves, big cloves, cut cloves and closed cloves, a wide selection with a lucky cut.
Actually we went to the local fresh marked, and bough different sorts of onions and similar products all are onion vegetables, and made some pictures.
And today, don’t waste food, onion tart.
While outside in the backyard picking the Chilli Petine peppers off out bush, before the birds eat them all. I noticed the small white chilli petine flower. With my camera at the ready, this image was born. I love the way this awesome capture came out. It is truely amazing how something so simple and small can be so beautiful Some folk's like to pick them when are still green, but I like them when are red.

View Huge on Black and turn off the lights
In Picnik
Crossprocessed blue and red channel,
Vibrance action at 50% to make the little lights, then selective desaturation to the foreground 80% to complete the look. Use the B+W function faded 20% and then erased off the "lights" in the background. Clear as mud eh!
Oh the title is a comment on the contrast between the grasping, rising outer stamens and the cowed bent over central ones. As far as I can make out they are all the same, just their attitude is different.
They can because they think they can...
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 😊
Suspended for a fraction of a second, this perfectly formed droplet is a moment of pure symmetry. It is weightless yet powerful, embodying the delicate balance between motion and stillness. A fleeting crystal ball, reflecting the world in microcosm before it vanishes.
My little snowdrops are buried under several inches of snow this morning so glad I took some shots before the snow arrived.
