I'm back from San Diego. I spent my birthday week with my daughter and son-in-law and it was just what the doctor ordered. Well maybe not "just" what he ordered. I think he ordered more time there. But for now it will have to do.
I have planted quite a few succulents in pots, hardy little plants, seeing that we have had water meters installed, I decided that a few water wise plants will do the thing.
It's like patting a cat, about that same texture and it has those cute brown circles edging the leaves. It grows happily in a pot in my back yard.

One of over 200 species of agave. These succulents make beautiful fine art prints, both in color as well as black and white. As usual with a b&w image, tones, texture and lines are accentuated. The color version, due to the almost monotone nature of the plant, can make a nice color accent for any wall.

I have a new toy! I thought it was about time I upgraded from my point & shoot got a real DSLR camera. I'm having so much fun with it.
Cropped a little, contrast slightly enhanced. It was a very sunny day so darked it up just a wee bit as well.

I started collecting succulents after buying a jelly bean plant for my Nana. A couple of the leaves fell off the plant and started putting down roots, I was soon hooked.
I've been given many plants and found some on road sides and some bought some at markets. I love how they procreate themselves so readily. I'm slowly learning the names of them which is good fun.
