Thank you Frank. These high-tech "wind cathedrals" play very nicely with light:

Thank you all for your wishes and prayers. I am happy to be back with my wife & kids and out of painland and the parallel universe of hospitals. Hope to stay out of there for a long time.

Today I will try out a real camera again for the first time in ages. My D850 without battery comparment plus the magic1.4/58G .... let's see where it will take me in the garden
