    1. It was a Red Letter Day! I got a chance to chat on Signal with my dear young Iranian friend living in Tehran who briefly got online. We were so glad to be able to get her news and to hear that she and her family are safe. She said there's been no attacks in the city since the cease fire. I told her not to take risks just to reassure me. I'd rather never hear from her again than to know she got herself in terrible trouble for my sake. She said she knows how to make sure she's safe. Such wonderful, precious few moments!

    2. We had a visit from 2 groups of friends we haven't seen in a while, as the weather allowed for comfortable outdoor conversations. It was so lovely to see them all. I've noticed that friends always try to time a visit in May to see our Magnolia tree. I can't blame them. This tree was just over 6 feet when we moved here and is now about 30 feet tall!

    3. I made a delicious lunch with (coconut) yogurt curry coated tofu, spinach and mushrooms in that yogurt sauce, potatoes and vegetables with enough for lunch tomorrow. Sometimes (eg yesterday) food has to be quick and easy, so today was a treat that took a little longer but was so worth it. And I made a fresh batch of those superfood bites ready for coffee time tomorrow.

    Have a lovely weekend, all!

  6. A peculiar side-effect of photography is expanding one's knowledge, I'm not green fingered so I had to look up what that purple flowering vine was, wisteria apparently, and by coincidence the building is the school of botany at TCD...

  7. Master of all he surveys. The sculpture he's sitting is sphere within sphere by Arnaldo Pomodoro, this one, of many apparently, is in Trinity College Dublin.

  8. From Kybe pond at the mill in Skerries. I doubt I'll get anything better this year.

  9. I've no idea what cultivar of cherry blossom this is, but it is beautiful. Also, quite happy with the quality of the CZJ Sonnar.

  10. The woodland is still carpeted with wild garlic but I found a small clearing with some daffodils lit by some lovely sunlight. The wood is quite calm after Storm David.

    Today I used my micro four thirds camera with a vintage Pentax M series 50mm f1.7 lens.

  12. Fingal county council's flower boxes are providing me with ample subjects, particularly taken with this tulip.

  13. I've taken a few shots of this signal box, this I think is the most Interesting.

  14. Probably one of the more enigmatic shots I got at the weekend.

  15. I wasn't sure about this when I took it, didn't think I'd got the focus correct, however it came out lovely. Especially that bubble bokeh effect in the background.

  17. Got a CZJ Tessar this morning, genuinely fascinated by the quality of a lens that's older than I am.

  18. I have used my dad's 47-year-old Canon FD 28mm F/2.8 lens on my modern mirrorless Camera. I think the lens is sharp. #ice #landscape #nordic #samsung #sunset #sweden #uppsala #canonphotography #vintagelens

  19. Am Meer war ich nicht, Kirchen und Glocken hab ich auch keine gesehen, aber Fotos vom Winterwald gemacht. Dann müsst ihr eben mit denen leben 😄

    Ebbene si, c'è quest'anatra a Omegna, che si chiama Camilla, molto amata dalla gente del posto. Se la chiamate lei vi si avvicina, è molto cordiale e ha un buon appetito!

    Questa mattina ho avuto la fortuna di avere un po' di tempo per qualche scatto, sempre con il mio "nuvo" fondo di bottiglia.
