Out taking pictures early in the morning

It's easier said than done when you consider that the sun rises at 6:15 here right now and is very low on the horizon when I go out. Trying to take a picture means having the sun right in your face or reflected on the smart phone's display.

Here are some photos that worked, more or less. The artichokes above are in our back yard. I'm not sure I know when they are ripe, but I think I'll harvest some of them and see if they're edible. The tiny grapes on the vines are out in the vineyard, of course. The white flowers of a locust tree on the edge of the vineyard have started to fade.

Below are some photos of the work that's going on out in the vineyard these days and that I mentioned yesterday. A lot of vines have been dug up and now the ground they were growing in has been plowed. We're wondering if new vines will be planted later this year or in springtime next year.

  1. These photos look great! (And, yes, I remember your having gotten your garden path re-done, with a weed barrier and new rock... it really is looking good.)

  2. Artichoke plants always look lush to me - kind of tropical.
