I've been dealing with ailments over the past week (one because I didn't notice I'd run out of one particular med, without which body and mind can go just a tad haywire), and pain in a new area of my back. Dealing with that as well as some Dreamwidth work have kept me from posting some pictures. Well, one of the pictures is from the spring total eclipse, so that's more than a little delayed. I'd intended to write about it, and never did; I'd intended to post a picture and never did. Today, I remedy that, at least in terms of the photo.
I also got around to taking some pictures of the garden covering the tiny lawn and parkway of a house a block or so from me. I mentioned this home* in a previous post, the one that talked about sunflowers. I'd included the line of flowers along the building across the alley from us, but said the house in question had an explosion of sunflowers and other blooms. I finally stopped my car on the way home, got out, and took some photos.
The eclipse photo was taken on my phone at totality, without a filter - the only time you can do that. I didn't have a filter, and one that a friendly stranger lent me didn't work, not with my clumsy fingers handling it. The picture shows a small dark spot at the center of the sun; for some reason the fact that the entire solar disc was covered doesn't some across visually. But I think you can easily see the strange light that totality created. That's why I love the picture.
The flower house speaks for itself.
*With enough love and care, a house becomes a home.
