Chinese Paper Bush (Edworthia chrysantha)

Image
One of the lovely shrubs blooming in winter is the Chinese Paper Bush (Edworthia chrysantha) .  It was originally from China.  It can be difficult to capture the image because of the way the blossoms hang down.  These images were taken at different times with the Panasonic camera.  Minor editing. 

Still life Coffee, Donut Stix, Mom's Depression Glass, Pink Camellia

This morning I went to McDonald's to get some donut stix which were part of a new promotion if you bought a breakfast sandwich.  I decided to create a still life of the domut stix, with napkin, a pink camellia from my garden and a French Vanilla Latte.  The glassware is from my Mom.  It was a promotion during the depression.  I don't know if it has a name.  It is not the thick milk glass but more translucent.  The background is a piece of green felt.  I did not get to take many images on my front porch using natural lighting because my neighbor's dog thought he saw breakfast.   When I put it inside Ms Faye scarfed one done in a second.  All in all it was a nice way to start my day. Not pictured is a breakfast burrito.  Taken with iPhone 6S-minor editing in camera.
