Making Do.

I have a small 4MP camera that i used to digiscope with years ago Nikon Coolpix 4500. So to keep my hand in im using this untill i can get my camera repaired or save up for a new one.

A few from recent days, first is an example od what the French call Contre-jour, using strong backlighting.



Still trying to ID this wildflower.



Weetslade country park, is very popular with dog walkers, good habitat for wildflowers, butterflys, moths, and dragonflies.



Orchid.



Tides in, still some people on the island they will have to risk wading across.

Re: Making Do.

I'd say you are making do just fine!
I don't know what that wildflower is, but it sure is pretty.
As is the orchid.
Great pictures!

Gorgeous pictures Nom .... could the non-identified wild flower be .... Common Centaury (Centaurium erythraea) .... that's the only one I can see in my little book of wild flowers that looks anything like it

I really like the lighthouse island photo, it would make a nice picture on the wall.
