The last of the wren kids finally left home last weekend (took a lot of encouragement from the parents). Now the male is busy preparing a new nest for his next mate or maybe the same one...  Tony |

As Elsa was passing through here this morning I wondered what I might submit for today. Then this caught my eye and decided to play with the phone macro again.   |

No Elsa here but we did have a welcome cold front pass through lowering the temperature, dropping the humidity and producing some lovely cumulus clouds for adding to my sky replacement collection ..  Tony |

Beautiful clouds.....I was just noticing we had some nice ones as well now. May have to take a couple myself. AND you have no sensor dust!

And I’ve never cleaned it - just lucky I guess as I do change lenses regularly. Had more problems with my Nikon than with my Fuji but that may be DSLR vs mirrorless as I believe the design of mirrorless makes them less prone to dust. Tony |

I believe the design of mirrorless makes them less prone to dust. I agree. I clean mine every few days with an bulb air blower. The sensor does get a few bunnies on it but never had to swab it in 3½ years. hmca Pray tell, what did you photograph? Did I miss something?  |

Pray tell, what did you photograph? Did I miss something? It is a banana with the peel. A little flashlight was placed on the table to add the light. |

Glad you could join in , Margaret. Your friend has quite the green thumb. Looks like the pigeons have found a new gathering place.

Went to Deep Cut Gardens today. I have been there many times but have never seen so much in bloom, and not dried out, in the garden with the fence around it. For my second picture I was once again thinking of Tony's quest for symmetry.   |

Was on duty at a local historic village open-house today so tried for a picture at the one-room schoolhouse. Lighting is always tricky there but this was one of the better days  Tony |
