Good morning from a cool morning. The sun is just starting to come up. It is hard to work out what time it is when I wake up now. It definitely is staying darker for longer in the mornings. Autumn is definitely here.
It is the last day of March and it is challenger’s choice for Sally’s challenge at Lens and Pens by Sally. This is when we use our non camera devices. Even if I don’t have my camera on me I still have my iPhone 5S which has a good camera.
These photos were taken last Sunday. I was totally bored, along with my parents at their stall at the school fair. So I had both my phone and my camera with me so I took turns with them. It rained heavily for about an hour or so and when the sun came out I used the phone to take these photos. We had a plant stall next to us so I could take these photos without annoying anyone.
Here you can see just how heavy the clouds were.

By coincidence, alongside a highway here in Austin this morning I noticed that lots of gaura plants were flowering, and your first photograph seems to show a species of gaura.

Thanks. I am useless with names of plants and didn’t want to ask the stall holder.

It is interesting that autumn is coming were you live and here in Canada Spring has started.

I am used to it. But it is fun to see colour when we are in the depths of winter.

That is why I live where I do – we have long summers and short winters.

Thanks Marilyn. I am impressed with the 5S. The macro is great. It is useful to have on me when I don’t have my other camera. It does have it’s limitations but it will do.
