Return of the orange poppies

(Yes, it’s flowers again – deal with it.)

About five years ago we (i.e. Madame) scattered a packet of orange poppy seeds in what we’re pleased to call our garden. For the next three years they went viral – dozens (maybe more – I never actually counted them) of them.

Then nothing last year. However, they’re back again, with a handful appearing in one of our raised beds. This is one of them, preparing to unfold.

Barrel Ceiling

Last Friday evening, Madame and I had dinner at a rather nice (and nicely unpretentious) bistro in Paris.

I noticed that the ceiling was quite unusual, so captured an image of it using the ‘selfie’ camera on my iPhone.

Last On The Card: Moonshot

I captured this view of a bright moon, partly obscured by light clouds, on my way to put out the bins. How prosaic.

(My hands must be steadier than I thought: exposure time was 0.5 seconds)

The Sheep Market

The pens are already in place for the village’s monthly sheep market.
