#Hydrangeas #bouquet that I picked for Mom.
I got the thick, blown glass vase for free, from the side of a road, a few years ago. It was & still is in perfect condition. I'm a frugal/freebies hunter

Busy, productive weekend 
Many food crops were transplanted. An acre of beds were prepped for more crops to be transplanted.
#QueenAnnesLace is distinguishable from many lookalikes in same plant family, by a single purple floret in the center.
Lemony yellow, #daylily.
I'll be attending some workshops hosted/facilitated by local #BIPOC grassroots collective nonprofit, 4Roots, soon.
My dear 2S Indigenous friend, Raven, is partnered up with 4Roots founder. They're expecting a baby soon

These two photos were taken with an even older phone - #SamsungGalaxy8 - which had been discontinued. The camera on it still works just fine.
I'm always the last of all my family & friends to upgrade any phone. I will use my old phones until they die or until they are lost & never found. I've never felt any need to get a new phone if my old one still works - it goes against my views of consumerism/capitalism. I've never had any FOMO feelings about phones or other digital stuff. I barely use any digital gadgets. I don't feel my life is incomplete without a bunch of those digital things that I don't truly need.
Child's playtime.
Marvelous #SweetWilliam blooms. The really bring some wonderful colour pops in your garden. Very easy to grow around the PNW areas.
Almost all photos I've shared here were taken with an old Samsung Galaxy 10 phone. I want to show folks that you don't need an expensive new phone to take fab photos.
Work on your composition more & worry about gear, less. I have 3 DSLRs (One Nikon & 2 Canon) & rarely use them these days. Too lunky to lug around gear so I only use my DSLRs when absolutely necessary.
Have loads of fun with photography - don't lose your playfulness when creating images!
