Apple Blossoms photos

Thanks for the tip, I do have the alert on but the email telling me about your reply seems to want to find its way into the junk mail - I am sure if I keep removing it my iPad will learn as I do.

I love fungi and have always been told that having it in the garden is a sign of a healthy soil unless it is the dreaded honey fungus. The beetle photo is amazing but a little creepy

 

Hi Sheal hope you are well. yes I can't believe we have so many types and as the season stops as I thought others seem to appear Think I need to find a book about them before I can make a good mushroom soup with them

 

I think you need more than a book to expand your knowledge Apple Blossom. It takes a long while to learn what is edible and what isn't, so please don't risk eating anything from your garden, it's too dangerous.

 

I agree, they just all look so appetising. I've found out that here in the New Forrest they do a foraging day out to learn more about what is edible and not edible...... but thereafter would I trust myself to collect the right type....... probably NOT

 

Having a play around with my new Christmas/Birthday lenses















There is a lot to learn about photography.......

And a secret photo of Dad (87) before he goes in for his lung op

 

Great photos @Apple Blossom.
Gosh I've got behind I didn't know about your Dads lung Op, when's he going in to hospital? Please keep us up to date with his progress.

 

Hi Apple Blossom,
I don't know why you say you've got a lot to learn about photography, these photos are beautiful, well done

 

And a funny one because he caught me

 

Ahhh thank you Anthony.... I take about 200 and take the best of the worst

 

Hi Beckie, I've come up to Chester to be with him, its be one visit after another to hospitals, I'm glad I'm here as he said he has no interest in food .... until I cook him a 3 course meal... I can't eat all of that.... oh that was lovely.. plates all clean and empty

Joking aside, I am worried, it all started in December, and in 87 years this is the first time he has ever been in hospital so everything is new for him. Fingers crossed all will be well as he has always been very active and fit.

His op is next week so fingers crossed all will be well

 

Love the second picture of your dad Apple Blossom, he has such a big smile.

I wish him well during and after his operation.

 

Thank you for your kind thoughts

 

Lovely photos AB and a couple of smashing photos of your Dad. I hope everything goes well for him and he makes a speedy recovery.

 

Sounds like you've had a busy time AB, I'm sure Dad is very appreciative of your company & cooking.
I hope all goes well with the op next week, please let us know how he gets on. I shall be thinking of you both
