In the pink

My good things for the day are the Cameron family. As @lucycameron and I were having a lovely time with cameras in the garden her other half was expertly extracting Adam’s recalcitrant wisdom teeth. Adam is safely home and being provided with soft and tasty morsels on a VERY regular basis and will be well dosed with painkillers at bedtime. Meanwhile I am delighted to report that Lucy’s mere presence in the garden was enough to attract two goldfinch to my feeders!
This ‘daisy’ (it’s much bigger than a normal one) is in the wildflower area we planted last year and Lucy’s macro tubes have captured it rather nicely I think.

Weather: chilly
Covid: A year on from realising that we had not all come down with Covid and Adam had recovered. Thank goodness for vaccines at this point.
Bad thing: dreadful WiFi again which is seriously impeding commenting at the mo. I’m going to have to sit on the phone till I get through to a human.

Good news for Adam! Lovely DOF on this picture, I so adore seeing your flowers, my daffs are just thinking about opening.

[Alison Tomlin]

Very pretty but is it your picture or Lucy Cameron's....?

[Judith Johnson]

Your daisy is beautiful and yes I did think it was one of the tiny ones and you were lying down in the grass! Good wishes to Adam

@fueast mine - with Lucy’s equipment!

@busylady about an inch across - did require some crouching!

I feel very honoured to be, along with Malcolm, your good things.
Adam may not be thinking the same whilst he recovers from what must feel like a couple of rounds with Mike Tyson!
Your macro shot is spot on, colours and focus superb. It was lovely exchanging lenses and now have the most terrible lens envy as I desire your telephoto! Swap you for my extension tubes ?

Glad all went well with Adam...always a bit anxiety producing for moms. Beautiful color contrasts and dof

[Terri]

Beautiful detail on this lovely flower.

Ouch, all the best for the recovery for Adam! Hope you get your wifi sorted. Amazing how much we depend on it.
Beautiful flower, love the grass around it.

Beautiful thing.

Fabulous shot of this gorgeous flower. Love that yellow center peeking through the petals. Beautiful detail and colors!
I hope Adam's tender post-extraction gums make a fast recovery.
