Welcome to another episode in the Tumblr Salad series! Every now and then I get a bug up my bum to pull together a gallery of pix that I’ve posted on the boZannical Tumblr, and you, my blog-reading friends, get to revel in all things boZannical. 🙂
I had a revelation recently when putting together some posts for the Tumblr: queues! I had NO idea. It was so exciting to discover that I don’t have to publish immediately! I have a habit of taking as many as 100-150 photos on a long walk, but if I post even half of them I’ll totally overwhelm people (and myself!) It was such a huge thing to discover I can plug them into a queue and have them self-publish at a rate of my choosing. It really is just the most exciting thing for me. You have no idea. 🙂 Oh, along that line, I actually started another Tumblr blog while I was at it. I notice lots of interesting doors and gates and entryways on my walks, but I’ve “ignored them” photographically, since they don’t fit in with the themes of any of my myriad Tumblrs. So, I started Door to Door. If you’re into interesting doors and architecture, check it out!
Anyhoo, on with the Salad:
Rain-soaked bark on a Corymbia ficifolia tree.
Soft white Camellia sinensis on 19th at Noe.
Interesting pavers in a little public planting in Noe Valley.
Kalanchoe thyrsiflorus ‘Fang’ discovered on a walk in Noe Valley.
Yellow Clivia miniata on Carmel in Cole Valley.
Now, THAT’s what you call a hard pruning. 19th and Castro.
Playing with color filters, since the Equisetum hyemale was looking just too crappy to go “natural” with the blue and green of CCSF’s Olmec Plaza.
Oddly layered construction sand and soil at CCSF. At least the Agapanthus orientalis will survive it!
A “bed” of Oxalis pes-caprae. Tee hee.
Leucadendron on Belgrave.
Leucadendron on Belgrave.
Sunflowers on Clayton above Corbett.
Dolores Park’s Furcraea bedinghausii colony all bloomed in unison! Quite a show, on Dolores at 18th.
Iceland poppies on 21st and Sanchez or thereabouts.
Stairway up to the Castro-Duncan Open Space.
Came across this unexpected sculpture garden whilst traversing the Castro-Duncan Open Space recently.
Don’t forget to look up! To appreciate what you do, you gotta keep your eyes open. 🙂
Camellia petals, fallen in perfect formation.
