the remaining food stuffs I assembled for cooking are next to nothing (on the right). I do not eat bananas and Birna does not eat bananas anymore.

The food stuffs on the left came to me yesterday afternoon and I see a great photo opportunity in the oranges...

I have been further up the mountains. Great vistas. Great rocks. Great vegetation. They even had a bathtub there!

I returned Friday for a stop-over at Dragør, Denmark to visit my brother and his Danish wife. They had gone a-sailing, but a message on the entrance blackboard indicated I shouldn't worry :)

Later, my friend Erik ['Dr. Lens'] appeared with the special-cut lens hood for my 19/4 PCE Nikkor and the 50/1.2 Nikkor, the latter once again restored to its former CPU glory. Kudos to Erik :D :D :D

Armed with the 50/1.2 and the special AFS extension ring Erik earlier gave me as a birthday present, I now could do something with the endearing dandelions springing up everywhere. I literally fell for this little bloom trying to make its impression on a nearby fence.

Dandelions are superb objects for close-ups.

only ten minutes from our house, but it rocks!

The roads are not for shy drivers and you need a bit of climbing skills too to get to the best vantage points

Dandelions can be expressive and moody, too.

after my Siesta I drove one hour to Almuñecar to get wet in the MARE NOSTRUM. On the way back I had this moment:
