The title of this blog comes from a Gaelic expression -"putting on the poor mouth"-which means to exaggerate the direness of one's situation in order to gain time or favour from creditors.

New Toy for my camera
Nigella (Love in a mist)
I treated myself to a new lens yesterday - a macro lens. This means I can take better close up shots, no need to crop either. Now to spend the several hundred pounds for a ring flash.
Geranium versicolor
Fuchsia magellanica
Spirea blossom

I think I can manage that Alisn..Strangely this is actually meant to be a political blog!
The more I see of Macro pics the more I dream of a new camera. Politics? Where? . . .lol
I've just ordered the £300 ring flash to go with the lens now.. Expect more close ups!
You take the best photo's I've seen anywhere. You ought to license them or something.
I'm partial to the lovely veined qualities of the geranium. I wish that variety would grow in the jungles of H-Town.
ThanThanks very much berty! I wouldn't go so far as to say that my photos are the best but I am pleased with some of them!
It is a lovely geranium. It is a species perrennial and Houston may be a tad too hot for it. It might bve worth seeing if it can be grown though
