Granny Smith Apple Tree Bud (Vintage Sirius 28mm f2.8 macro lens)

This is a bud on our Granny Smith Apple Tree

We paid £1-00 for the tree a couple of years ago. It was sad and on it's own in the "bargain corner" by the tills at Homebase. It produced a fine crop of Apples last year.

The Granny Smith Cultivar originated here in Sydney in 1868. There is a Granny Smith Festival every year and she is buried in a local church only a few kilometres away.

It’s rewarding you now then Phil.....out of your usual comfort zone here! Funny you can usually recognise people’s style as they scroll up....wouldn’t have guessed this was yours! New chapter ....nature! Lovely detail!

Best sort of bargain! Nice to see new life coming back, gives one hope

Super-quality macro capture, Phil. Well done. Did you use a tripod to take this shot?

[Helen Jane]

It was then, indeed a bargain.

[Judith Johnson]

Well done Phil, you bagged a bargain!
