Soon to be a flower, unless we eat it. I've been quiet on the Forum for 2 months, first from the Stay-at-Home order and then from a bicycling muscle tear, but recently the artichoke plant presented an opportunity for me right in the back yard.

Love that Prickly Pear! We're not so big on prickers here, but it is high season for our Rhodies. This is under an overcast (Well, it's in the Puget Sound, so what else?) at the Meerkerk Garden.

Here's the other image from last week's excursion to the Meerkerk Garden. As above, TriX film under heavy overcast.

Well done Paul, as usual. Although I'd prefer to see more detail in bottle and maybe in table too.
Best wishes,
Igor.
