Jasmine or Chinese jasmine. A valuable perfume Oil is distilled from the flowers and in a less concentrated form, is used in incense. It’s strong scent in its natural form!! love it or hate it!!!

Calla Lily. Widely culvivated. Not a true lily. In culture, frequently in art of Diego Rivera and Georgia O’Keefe. The white form is seen in symbols of Irish Republicanism, recalling rebellion of 1915. So not just a big lovely flower.

Narcissus, AKA diffodil - often the first flower of Spring, dazzling yellow. The myths of Narcissus show the fatal results of self-obsession but leave us beautiful blooms as compensation.

Candytuft. Not related to candy. Derived from Candia, former name of Iraklion on Crete in Mediterranean. Native to that area and surrounding locations. I find it as a lovely ground cover, the only plant flowering in my yard in the depths of California winter. So intricate.!!!

Rose that is a little bit bigger than my thumbnail … small, small, small for a rose, but it’s a beauty !!!! Found while I was walking.

Yesterday’s moon shining through clouds… I love the colors of the halos around the moon!!! Only the camera shows the halos!

Sun is setting, mid afternoon, a week ago … the camera can see what your eye cannot…
