Wait! Cucumbers Have Flowers?
Posted on July 28, 2021
Not that I’ve ever given the matter much thought, but I was genuinely surprised to see that the cucumber plants in our serre were flowering.
Although since they’re planted next to the courgettes, which even I know have flowers, I really ought to have realised.
To be honest, I was just attracted by the water drops.
Fighting goats
Posted on June 12, 2021
The colour theme for Cee’s midweek challenge this month is yellow.
In the East Lothian town of Haddington there is a statue of a pair of goats fighting. It’s imaginatively called ‘The Haddington Goats’.
And there’s a yellow wall behind it.

This week’s Tuesday Challenge at Dutch Goes The Photo is to post an image of something yellow.
I don’t know what these flowers are called, but they are most definitely yellow.

Weekly Photo Challenge: Yellow
Posted on December 20, 2014
To fit this week’s theme, another image from the inexhaustible fount of photographic possibilities that is Dubai Mall. This one is a lantern, or chandelier if you prefer. I placed the camera on the floor and hovered around it protectively while the exposure was made.
