One of the photographic "treasures" that I hunt (well, not really, just occasionally stumble upon) are plants that express unusual colors when flowering. :)
Here's an Early Onion (Allium praecox) with entirely white flowers (normally white and pink) that I found recently on a local trail.

"Across the Vale" for #ThickTrunkTuesday and #TreeTuesday (albeit a bit late)... and I know that #MonochromeMarch is supposed to be for new photos and this one is from 2014... so, sorry. ;)
This beautiful Engelmann Oak at Love Valley on Palomar Mountain's east slopes is overlooking the Lake Henshaw basin. Photographed on a lovely February morning.

Finally checked "Harvest kumquats" on my to-do list today.
Now I have "Make kumquat jam" on my to-do list.
Which is significantly more work. Sigh. :P

Occasionally I still log in to Flickr but stuff like this makes it less and less likely:
Banner 1: "Get your MODE passes now!" <click X>
Banner 2: "Your Pro subscription has lapsed, renew now!" ...that was like what, four years ago? <click X>
Slide-in from the bottom: "Get Flickr Pro!" <click X again>
JFC...

RE: @weatherwest@mastodon.social
If we only knew what causes these anomalous swings and weather extremes, but it really is a complete mystery to everyone... /s

Day two with @Waterfox@mastodon.social on Mac — after some hiccups (Bookmarks Toolbar wouldn't import) and switching to a light theme, pretty smooth sailing. 👍

'Also as usual, Godox refuses to publish Guide Number information, which is useful in determining which flash unit you might actually want. In fact, there are a number of "unprovided" notations in their specifications, as if this is top secret information that could fall into the wrong hands. All we know is that the V1mid is not as powerful as the V1. I guess the dox in Godox doesn't stand for documentation.' 😂
