Well your artwork looks fab.

My Delft-tile project is complete! Or at least, the painting stage is done. I'm really pleased how they've turned out, & how my painting improved 💙

Next to put them up as a fireplace surround .

Wow! Those are beauts! 💙🤍💙

Hibiscus rosa-sinensis 'The Path' blooming in the DBG (Denver Botanic Gardens) Conservatory

A yellow fish covered in brown dots and irregular brown patches. It has a diamond-shaped body, a small mouth and a prominent, raised dorsal spine; the tail is fan-shaped. #UnderwaterPhotography #WildlifePhotography #Wildlife

A filefish, doing whatever filefishes do. Either Acreichthys tomentosus (bristle-tailed filefish) or Pseudomonacanthus macrurus (strapweed filefish). But filefishes can generally change colour, at least somewhat, so it's tricky.

Photo I took just now of a large round bright orange hibiscus flower with ruffled petals and a hot pink center.

Orange hibiscus, I don’t know the variety. 🌴🌱🌺

Morning.

Any day that starts with a David Bowie song has got to be a good one. 🎶😁

My neighbour's stunning pink David Austen roses. Each year she teaches me their names but I've forgotten. Again!

#RoseWednesday with my neighbours pink perfection. Looking forward to seeing these again later in the year. #bloomscrolling #DailyFlowers #vitaminN #Lancashire

Two golden-brown woodpeckers sitting on a thick branch. The male is on the left and in focus. He is looking at female on the right who is raising her beak to greet him.

Happy New Year everyone! Find yourself someone who looks at you like this male Northern Flicker looks at the female in the foreground. 🪶

I see this a lot with sole businesses. 🥴

One of my favourite films. Really sad to know that Rob Reiner is dead.

Loads and loads of roses at the David Austin Roses nursery.

What. A. Day. 🌹

Never have I enjoyed walking in the wet more.

Superb visit to David Austin Roses. It was VIP treatment all the way.

Tours of the selection and breeding beds, the precision sorting and packing process, plus a guided walk around the awesome rose garden.

Wowzers! 🥳

My exceptionally cute cat Tuppence climbing up the middle of my Acer. Collage of three black and white cat pictures in an autumn Acer tree.

Isn't she the cutest?

Also, the most mischievous.

Little Tuppence decided she'd help daddy in the garden by climbing up his Acer 🐈‍⬛️😂

It’s quite a breathtaking church isn’t it? I visited in January one year and there were enough people then. I am not sure when would be the best month to visit for fewer people. 😆

Inside St Peter's 👍 molto bellissimo ma a tad to many people! And Ottobre is not peak either! #Rome

Loads of haws on my tree out the front and hedge at the back. Was so good to see the blossom in spring, knowing there would be a bountiful crop of haws. x
