Off to see the lotus blossoms.

Lotus – Green Springs Garden.

Went on a very short excursion early this morning to see the lotus blossoms at nearby Green Springs Garden. For the occasion, I fired up my Olympus Pen-F.  No phone photos today.

These are huge plants. They bloom for a couple of weeks every July.

A little post-processing fun here. After shooting the lotus, we went off to the farm market. Where I got a bunch of tomatoes. And a fine shot of some mushrooms.

Finally, some darkly rich mushrooms from the Falls Church Farm Market.

I spent what was left of the day eating tomatoes and resting. Don’t know what I was resting from. The weight of 77 years I guess. Going out for Chinese tonight. A day without Asylum food will be a very good day indeed.
