hybrid creature.
This is the finale of my experiment.
Just a silly joke - please excuse me Martin. I hope you have more humor than my full grown potatoes.
Greetings Rolf
The Colorado potato beetle (Leptinotarsa decemlineata), also known as the Colorado beetle, the ten-striped spearman, the ten-lined potato beetle, or the potato bug, is a major pest of potato crops. It is about 10 mm (3⁄8 in) long, with a bright yellow/orange body and five bold brown stripes along the length of each of its elytra. Native to the Rocky Mountains, it spread rapidly in potato crops across America and then Europe from 1859 onwards.
This one was sitting in my garden with no potato field in miles around, so I left it alone...

Potato Seller at market in Old Delhi, India.
Old Delhi or Purani Dilli was founded as a walled city of Delhi, India, founded as Shahjahanabad in 1639, when Shah Jahan, the Mughal emperor at the time, decided to shift the Mughal capital from Agra.
The construction of the city was completed in 1648, and it remained the capital of the Empire until its fall in 1857, when the British Raj took over a paramount power in India.
It was once filled with mansions of nobles and members of the royal court, along with elegant mosques and gardens. Today, despite having become extremely crowded and dilapidated, it still serves as the symbolic heart of metropolitan Delhi.
Crazy Tuesday- Complementary Colours
I chose Purple and Yellow for my two colours. This is a Purple Potato Blossom and a member of the Nightshade's Family . Stu planted these last year in the Spring and some of the potatoes were left in the soil over the winter so they came up this year instead of last fall. We call these Volunteers. Nightshade blossoms are pretty distinctive looking. The petals on these flowers also come in white indicating that the potato is a white variety. (Thanks Wes for mentioning Crazy Tuesday)
Just in case y'all didn't believe me!
I need to make a new album for "Indiana oddities".

This second study of the Potato Eaters by Van Gogh can be admired at the Kröller-Müller Museum, Otterlo, Guelders.
The museum, located at the centre of the Hoge Veluwe National Park, boasts the world's second largest Van Gogh collection.
This park is highly recommended if you want to enjoy nature and experience some awesome vistas while riding your free bike on well kept dedicated bicycle roads :-)

*Kartoffel-Heimat*
It almost seems like art the way the potato farmer cultivates his field.
I regularly get my potatoes from the fields in this area...and they taste really good.
Es mutet fast nach Kunst an, wie der Kartoffelbauer sein Feld bestellt.
Von den Feldern dieser Umgebung beziehe ich regelmäßig meine Kartoffeln...und die schmecken richtig gut.
A potato eye. This is the starting point for a new potato plant. For Macro Mondays theme "Eye". This is image covers about 1.5 inches lengthwise.
Some vegetables look pretty. Potatoes lack that visual charm. Instead, these mini Charlotte salad potatoes charm the taste buds. For Macro Mondays "Vegetable". FOV 2.8-inch.
This potato got buried in my potato bag in the pantry. I love how our produce can reproduce itself and holds the potential for new life. If you leave a chocolate bar or Twinkies buried in the pantry they won't do this.
The potato and it's roots got me thinking about how planting oneself firmly will keep you in one place growing upward and somewhat outward. Is that the only way to live life never wandering far and exploring but safely planted? I feel like it is the best way to raise a family. But I have no experience with moving around much.
Sorry my thoughts and ramblings feel incomplete and disconnected today.

Close up of a Russet Potato peel for Macro Mondays Group. The theme is "It's A-Peeling To Me".
I thought I would try joining a theme based group. Although my macro's are not as good as a lot of peoples I do like macro photography.

▶ "Apios americana — commonly known as American groundnut or potato bean— is a native perennial vine in the legume family (Fabaceae). It is native to North America from southeastern Canada south through Florida, west to Colorado. It grows in tidal and non-tidal marshes and wet thickets, on stream banks, and in bottomland forests.
The vine can grow 8-16 feet long. The flowers are usually pink, purple, or red-brown, and are produced in dense racemes [short floral stalks] 3-5 inches in length (7.5–13 cm). The plant's fruit, seeds, and large tubers are all edible."
