I believe in gardening. I believe in humanity and kindness - books, education, candles, dirt, salt, roots, music, animals and their rights. I am firmly against fascism and a government that is not for the people.

Still Sleeping
for #MacroMonday
and #PinkMon by #ColorADay

Happy Monday lovely people! 😊

Photograph taken of a pink anemone flower from the side using a macro setting. The anemone enters the frame from the top left and arches over hiding its centre. As the day progresses it will stand tall and reveal its golden stamens. Its petals are gently undulate and fold over each other, in various shades of pink to patches of almost blotchy white. A small section of its soft green stem and a small flower bud sit behind the flower in the top left corner. The background is a deep grey (it's the inside of a shoebox lid). Love these flowers. They are so graceful. Have planted them in clumps around the garden - some white and some pink.

A big, beautiful, bright red mushroom in the forest. It was about 10cm tall and is probably a Russula of some sort.

The first bits of fall color are appearing, and cooler nights are here in the PNW. And fall equinox is coming up. I hope all of you are cozy and well and settling into fall magic.

So... I completely geeked out over this tree. Oh, the stories she could tell. A perfect tree for #ThickTrunkTuesday 💚💚💚

Don’t forget to hug your favorite tree today (and tomorrow) 🌳🫶🏻💚
