This is a picture of one-day-old lettuce. I love, in particular, how you can see the seed pods still sticking to they tiny chutes.

essexjan, that little dead bird took my breath away. And marxchivist, that's the closest I've ever been to a toy soldier! Here's a few of mine:

It's my wee $1 basil plant that's actually growing from Target.

Ooh, so many lovely photos. I love all the flora and fauna, but the close-ups of the old books make my fingers itch to turn the pages.

That's a great shot, kodama. I love the way the rust blends with the burned paint.

Thanks Jan. I've had a long obsession with rust and have taken many a picture of it. This being the internet, it turns out that there are scads of Flickr groups etc with rust, urban decay and so on. Its always an interesting experience to find out that something that you figure is of pretty limited interest actually appeals to a lot of people. Makes sense of course when you than that with 6+ billion people every taste is going to have plenty of fellow travelers. A lesson the internet teaches over and over again.
