I love this season, even when it is grey and rainy. I am trying to get my eye in with the new lens, I haven’t yet got the connection where I know what I want in my mind and then can make it happen. I hope to check in with a few daily life type pictures each day this week. This was from today when I was checking out the garden after work.
I have been a neglectful gardener in the last month (look at the lawn!!). There has been the distraction of holidays and kittens. However there are still things to harvest.
I have been out picking chamomile in the rain. Growing chamomile was a bit of a luxury 'just for me' thing to grow, I really like nice chamomile tea. However it looks really pretty too :) I actually planted this last year but it is only this year that it has come up with the chamomile flowers for me to harvest. I bought the seeds from here.
Something else from the garden. I took this a couple of days ago at a slightly earlier time in the evening than the dill pictures. I think this is a chrysanthemum? I can't remember what I planted! Although you can't tell the scale from the picture it is a big flower.
Sometime I would really like to do a proper post on the garden. I have been meaning to do this for ages but it feels such a big job I have been putting it off. We started it from literally nothing but lawn and weeds two years ago. This year I have really enjoyed having flowers in the garden.
