Photography from 21st June 2018, strawberries and triffids

Fizzy bubbles on a red background.

I finished work, sorted some images, then fell asleep for five hours without meaning to. Clearly I needed the sleep, and now all the images are sorted and posted.

Mostly flowers, some cherries that may never get to ripen because the birds will be on them like locusts at the first hint of being edible, and some faded wooden sign shots.

Smells amazing at night.
