Photo of the day - April 2021

[StrollerEd]

[edit: Seven] years ago I took this with an iPhone 6 at the Royal Botanical Gardens in Edinburgh. With easing of Lockdown, I've booked a slot to visit the Botanics tomorrow armed with the iPhone 12 Pro. Weather forecast says sunny intervals but with a wind chill that will make it feel like -3C .. Wondering what that might do to the blossom.

Earlier I posted a sister of this shot in the Panorama thread. It's compact enough to post here as well, so I've done so.

Daffodils.

Happy sigh.

Joy.

Pure and utter joy.

I don't do a lot of selective colour but the cone was so out of place in the medieval city of Canterbury it was a choice of cloning it out or highlighting it...



Sony Nex6, Sigma 30mm, about five years ago.

How many traffic cones have you seen in the middle of Venice?

Love the shot, love medieval city centres (especially those with water), do not much care for selective colour, and reall, would probably have preferred to see the cone (incongruous enough in such an image) without selective colouring.

I really like how you captured the spray from the breaking waves on the left. Even if it was lucky/accidental, it still looks cool.
