#DailyFlowers for you 🌱🌿 Happy #Stunday Sunday 🫶 I found these Turk's-cap lilies (Lilium pomponium) growing wild in Slovenia. I have never seen them before. #thelittlethings #photography #nature #flowers #ColorADay #OrangeSun #onlybeautifulthings #photohour #Bloomscrolling #EastCoastKin
Two orange lilies, whose leaves are still so intertwined that they form little balls. The green stamens hang down below and have orange pollen. The background is black.

Moon watching in SW Portugal across the park from my window, Waxing Crescent Moon of 30 June 2025 looking at a typical apartment building in the style of the Alentejo region; usually painted white and highlighted around the windows and building designs with blue or gold paint and terracotta tiled roofs. 2 apartments are lit up behind the trees.Closer view of the Waxing Crescent Moon of 30 June 2025 by itself shining bright, almost orange in the clear black sky of SW Portugal.

Yes some beautiful bridges in Portugal. Good idea to make a collection of photos of PT bridges. I see you found the best sunset view of the 1 Abril bridge in Lisbon. Dom Luis I is the sunset bridge when the weather clears. Duoro Valley is gorgeous. I'll be crossing my fingers for sun for you 🤞🌞

I'm hearing that Las Vegas hotels are laying off employees in the face of Canadians boycotting US travel over tariffs and Europeans boycotting travel to the US over fear of abductions. Nevada voted for Trump. You're welcome!

It looks like a fascinating visit. The An interesting viewpoint is in your photo looking from the interior to the outside imagining you were there in antiquity. What an excellent job with re-creating the painting & engravings.

#OregonCoast, every bit of it is spectacular. I grew up in the Willamette Valley. Going to the 'Coast' was always a special treat. Seeing your magnificent sunset brings back happy memories.
