I bought this after Christmas, planted it around the New Year and it's just now deciding to bloom.

Number 321 of my 365 photo challenge - A split-toned, shallow depth of field, landscape image of an old bench under a tree on a dark and rainy afternoon in Perthshire, Scotland.

 

This image sums up how I feel about the challenge on days like this. Benched by the weather. Or am I just being unimaginative?

Taizo-san and I were lucky to meet Yoanna, a tourist visiting Japan from Hong Kong. Thanks for taking the time to talk to us and take a few shots, Yoanna... I hope you enjoyed your Kansai visit!

Adder coils up tight

in the morning thaw,

her spangled train helter skeltering down

and tangled in stories spun of age:

 

Is there anywhere safe for a snake, who's

Scorned as Eden's "honey-trap"?

Tossed like cauldron fodder in to a witches' bake?

And chased off cliffs by a so called Saint?!!!

 

No wonder adder stays low when

slipping the bracken for a slither of light,

keeping the cloistered ruby of her eye

out of all shallow sight.

An ethereal portrait of Mittens captured through the window with a very shallow depth of field.

 

I borrowed my spouse's Nikon Z5 full-frame camera and used the Viltrox 85mm f1/8 lens. I absolutely love this lens for portraits.

Can still see snow in the background!

From my spring 2017 trip to Iceland--this lone puffin looking out over the Atlantic from the Isle of Papey.

Drinking the nectar

Waited patiently for this speedy bird to come out from the clustered bush of plants, finally caught her in the open. :)

Over the edge of this ice... looking out the frozen landscape of Georgian Bay.

Still life with acorns and falling feathers

The fog is about to vaporize, and the first sunrays hit a single straw amongst many

It's usually the other way around these days when I sew, the eye of the needle is the blurry bit, not the cotton ; )

 

The weather is calming down a bit and the sky is bursting with warm, comforting colors. I grab a last peek before turning my back on the 216th day of the year.

Technically I don't think this qualifies as a fence for Fence Friday. But on our way to a book signing with that 85mm f/1.8 in hand, I couldn't help myself.

 

If not a fence, this could be a very tall guard rail. Or just a way to avoid litigation if someone were to jump, accidentally. Most likely one would call it a tall orange metal barrier in a parking tower. The orange reminds me of the Golden Gate Bridge, nostalgically.

Thanks for looking and for previous comments.

With its down-turned little face I was really hoping that this might be one of the blue butterfly caterpillars, but my Google skills weren't up to the job of finding an ID.

Perhaps some of my more knowledgeable Flickr friends might be able to help?
