It's had this scaly stuff for all the years I've had it. somehow it just keeps on growing.
Today's quote:
In our age there is no such thing as "keeping out of politics". All issues are political issues, and politics itself is a mass of lies, evasions, folly, hatred, and schizophrenia. -George Orwell, novelist (25 Jun 1903-1950)
Phones are pretty good for taking close-ups -- better than normal lenses on bit cameras really.
ReplyDeleteJust don't take a closeup of a person, then you'll quickly see the damage to the person's nose, as the bullseye effect of those tiny lenses becomes obvious!
Delete...the beauty is in the details.
ReplyDeleteIt's fun to water plants a couple of times a week, and suddenly see changes from the last time I really looked at them!
DeleteLove the flowers and closeups. Beautiful.
ReplyDeleteI was very happily surprised these closeups worked...often the focus is somewhere out the window!
DeleteI want to plant an herb garden come spring but for winter I should have some indoors. Hmm .. you've givn me ideas with your rosemary.
ReplyDeleteI like the idea of having fresh herbs...like Cilantro or Basil...to clip and add to dishes I'm serving. Just don't have any now.
DeleteWonderful close ups.
ReplyDeleteThanks very much.
DeleteLove the color! The quote is very appropriate for our times.
ReplyDeleteThanks, I saw that quote and kept it till I found a good day to use it.
