A year ago today was the last day I gave oboe lessons in person. I had three students here in my house. We had no masks yet, but all my students were used to going first to wash their hands: I’d been having them do that for years.
Here, have some Thursday images, which are from even further back in time:

Leaves
I finally took a camera on my walk today. I barely did any camera work, but I was glad to see some lovely leaf color. Here’s one of the few shots I made.
Yellow & Red Leaves, 11.13.20
Happy Fall, Y’all!
Well no, I’m not from the south, but “y’all” just seemed to work well. That’s my story and I’m sticking to it.
Leaves, 10.21.19
A Green Thursday To You
Because … well … I love green!
Zantedeschia aethiopica Leaves, 5.4.20
Phormium
Not every image has to be a flower, right?
Stripes, 4.9.20
A Wednesday Afternoon Camellia
I realize that, for some, this might be a Wednesday night camellia instead, but here in my corner of earth it’s afternoon so there you go. I absolutely love these kinds of camellias and this plant was amazing. (Perhaps you can see that there are actually three camellias in this image?!)
Pink Camellia and Leaves, 3.5.20
Amazing Color
I don’t know if readers remember, but a few weeks back I posted an image of a tree with great leaf color. Since then I’ve walked past that tree again. And the change between April 19 (first two photos) and 27 is pretty amazing. Just today someone in a plant ID group asked for the ID of this tree, so now I know it is the Fagus sylvatica, also called the European beech or tri-color beech. I call it astounding beech.
& Now … In Monochrome
I prefer this. A cousin had written and said she’d prefer the monochrome. I agree with her.
Spring Onions and Calla Lily Leaves in Monochrome, 5.16.20
