      Don't you worry, sus, they're ripening in hedgerows all over the island ... there's plenty! May even add some to our dye pots ;>]]

      Nothing like a Borlotti harvest to make me wee heart swoon. Have you tasted them, Deb? Oh so divine in sautes and autumn soups .... YUM. Can't live without them ... it's the one veg I must grow EVERY year.

      Yep, I try to grow some each year too. Agree completely.

    I love to come here and see your captures and treatments of pix. A great post that reminds me of the unifying power of color. Also, the way a caption can make a little story (like the dog portrait, with 'Comedian' below).

      You are welcome 'round here any time, Dee, so happy that you visit. As for these minimal posts, they are liberating and challenging at the same time. Exercises in how to say more with less, in a way. The 'Comedian' says "woof woof!"

    Your photographic imagery is stunningly beautiful...some of them look like paintings. And your previous blog post is hilarious. Thank you for leaving a supportive comment at my blog post on my health issues and artist block.. truly helpful. I know you are with India Flint this week.. have a wonderful time with her workshop. I hope to meet you next week when I meet India for dinner.
