Nature is still green in my neck of the woods and it's raining cats and dogs overhere, so I dug up some oldies.
Photo 1 = Big crane at my daughter's little cottage near where I live.
Photo 2 = Some beautiful yellow flowers, don't know the name.
Photo 3 = The hen house in the barn of someone I know.

My first one. Google pixel 3, night sight mode, raw file further edited for white balance.

Golden light, golden flowers. on Flickr.

Where I live, suddenly it feels like winter this week. Look at the frosted mountain!

Beautiful entries already!

I was going to add my entries today but Zenfolio is "experiencing issues". Again.
Boy, am I sorry I picked Zenfolio and I'm grateful I don't have to use it for a business.
That would be a disaster.

I'll try again in a few days.
Luckily, there's still time

Bart · 10-13-2019, 04:43 AM - **1 Like**

Lets try again.

All with Panasonic FX500

Yellow house in Austria
4.4mm (26mm equivalent), 1/500 at f/2.8, ISO100

Gilded figures from Bruges
8.9mm (112mm equivalent), 1/640 at f/6.3, ISO160

Sunflower (one of my all-time favourites

)
4.4mm (26mm equivalent),1/800 at f/4, ISO100

Seems to work. For now.

That's a suspenseful one, these kids look really serious and/or anxious! Great capture of the moment.

My yellow Minionmobile (aka 'Stuart') for color contrast with a lovely fiery red maple (Tualitan, Oregon, last weekend). Shot with the ol' Olympus ZX-1

My second one is this.

Frozen droplet by k kwb, on Flickr

PENTAX Q7 and Q 06 telephoto zoom at the long end with Kenko AC+5 close up lens.

Yellow background is the blurred leaves. You can see the morning sun in the droplet together with the branches of this weeping cherry tree and my backyard fence
