Last week we had to put down our 13 week retriever pup, Jess, due to renal failure. Last night our neighbour, gave us this-a rose called 'Pretty Jessica'. I hardly know the neighbour but am touched beyond words at the kindness.
I'm also reading how to manage roses as I can't let this flower die. 🙂

Had my first early butterfly shoot of the year yesterday. I'd seen this pair the evening before, marked the spot, then went back to them at sunrise.

When I arrived at these woods I thought a photo like this unlikely. It was cloudy and forestry works meant that there were dead fallen trees everywhere so finding a composition was really tricky. Eventually the clouds broke up and sunshine flooded in for a few seconds at a time to allow this image.

I don't do "street" photography so I was particularly happy with this one from Canada Square last weekend. I had to wait a while to get the right person in the right spot but eventually it worked out perfectly.

The Proposal.
The sails are going back up on Chesterton Windmill in the next few days after 3 and a 1/2 years. This was the last image I took before they came down in 2021-I don't know if it was a proposal but the couple under the mill looked like that.
