Reminds me of a moment as some bomb erases a delicate flower. Well done Fons.

Do any of you like an occasional glass of beer?
I'm blessed to live in an area where many farmers grow hops.
Some plants can be over 6m tall and the aroma from them is mesmeric....

Actually right now is harvest time for hops, potatoes & Cider apples so things are looking up!
Here are some different stages of the hop flower lifecycle (D500, 105mm AFS)

A bright spot in an exceptionally droughty summer. Perhaps this is an escapee from cultivation: genus Coreopsis?

These shots reward a second and third look...hard to do! Fons:  Are these done with the 'classic' Distagon 35/1.4 or the newer Milvus 35/1.4?
