a couple of weeks ago I posted a digital version of this image. I wanted to like the film one better, because "film," but the dynamic range and composition were better in the other image. Still, I like seeing the differences in the "same" photo through different media. (and clearly I didn't edit out the fuzz from the scan....oops)

A touch of what looked to me like floral "fireworks'" - caught early this morning on a walk through a local park.

They look like allium, maybe , but I like your definition of fireworks!

they don't seem tall enough though?? mixed in with some black eyed susans or something similar, I think, based on the other leaves....but alliums should be like 3 feet tall....

These plants 'are' actually quite tall .. the stems are hidden in this photo, I concentrated on the flowers. The composite flower 'balls' are rather large now, and the individual flowers spreading out. I have watched this particular grouping since it came out this year, and it's been interesting and fun to see the development.

probably is allium, then. they are in the onion family, like chives and garlic, but ornamental only and usually very tall.

Had an early afternoon business meeting ... here, yesterday ... *snicker*

I mean, we __did__ talk business:

"I need to get some stuff on done on X"

Beach was __huge__ for our neck of the woods, water was beautiful.


And yes, don't fuck with the turtles

Floral grouping within a small portion of an outside window-garden - captured during my morning walk yesterday.

This day, I also found a really nice sand dollar, this is about the size of an English muffin
