    Although there are some beauties, some are also too grainy (from my old camera) and some are rather revealing too so.... they go back in the box, for now { ;)

    On the internet, no one knows you're a sheep.

    That's good enough for me. Not now Josephine! (sheepie was my joke/result to photoshopped Sacha. Obviously too cryptic/not funny)

    I do want to put this shot up but. It didn't need any work Sacha.I Like it. As I said earlier, bit grainy.

    Yes!
    Or bladderwrack bundle-
    if sea conditions are right, they sometimes have a glow (all those little phosphorescent animacules (poroporotitiwai) dying off-)

    That's interesting.....bladderwrack was the foundation of the South Brighton garden. It got a glow on sometimes.

    It's also edible...the seavegetable rather than the glow!

    That is one excellent garden...

    Used to be. We raised it from concrete and blasted heath -- one yew tree (by the beach?), a protea giant and a yellow bath full of gladioli. Twelve years of aroha and seaweed; we sold it and 18 months later the new owner put a bobcat through to make it modern and low maintenance. Heartbreaking.

    Oh Hebe, that sucks. :-(

    Is that kaka beak in the foreground there?

    I think it is a fuchsia...
    And Hebe -fuck o dear.
    I loathe garden-destroyers - they really arnt quite human...

    Red kakabeak. though the picture looks pinkish. They were amazing for three years then the next year were stripped bare by a caterpillar and never recovered. I have found kakabeak like neglect, sun and very good drainage.

    I'm amazed by how invisible the poor blighter is in the photo, because it stood out like a neon sign when I was down in the garden marking essays (to avoid the racket of the neighbours' renovating), but then again, I think this may be the first butterfly I have ever seen in Beijing. Considering I've lived in this city for more or less a decade, and in urban China for a bit over a dozen years, seeing a butterfly for the first time is both really depressing and cause for hope. Actually, I'm pretty sure this is the first butterfly I've seen in urban China ever. Moths I've seen plenty of around here. Maybe it's something to do with the drab, dusty, gray/sand colour that dominates this part of the world. My first thought was that this one looks a little monarchical, but not quite, maybe duchal or baronial or something... entomology is far from my forte.
