From my backyard... What amazing flowers they truly are; the few mosquito bites on my fingers were so worth it (the rest of me was all covered up)!

Thank you for your visit/comment/fave; I will do my best to reciprocate!

Testing out my brand new Helios 44-2 58mm f2 lens, purchased from Amazon, which took over a month to arrive from Ukraine.

Love the color tone, love the buttery bokeh!

Still working on finding the swirly sweet spot. Apparently, the background needs to have a good distance from the subject, with the camera ~8 feet away.

Thank you for your visit/comment/fave; I will do my best to reciprocate!

Many trees in our complex have turned brown after the freeze; the crown on this Sago Palm is still firm so I believe (and hope) it has survived.

On top of many damaged crops and plants, the bat colonies across the state were impacted from the freeze, with thousands of them found dead from cold and starvation. 😧

I wish you a nice weekend!
