    Ok Rich, inquiring but uninformed minds want to know, phone camera? Not familiar with the name that shows. There appears to be a lot of greenery immediately behind what looks like a patio or raised bed behind the house, also along the left border near the house.

    Glad you finally got some sunshine. That means you can go walking again, or cycling. Maybe Charlotte will show up here soon too? It is bone dry outdoors here. Not a good time to mow. Clouds of dust and junk come up but it is not quite that bad, yet. Perhaps some rain here later in the week before we have to water some gardens. Your yard is very green! Out west in the Americas the wildfire seasons are in full swing already. Weird weather!

    Yes just popped out with the phone in hand before heading out to work. Incredibly green after months of rain. There is indeed a patio just behind the house, the driveway and then a raised bed...

    This photo is looking towards where I took the first one

    To be honest I didn't buy it for the camera but for these sorts of images it's OK. It's such a pain to use 'as a camera' though and is so limited for macro, zoom, framing...

    Nice to see, Rich. The garden is lovely and the blue sky is very nice. I have almost forgot what blue sky looks like. Thanks for reminding me. Rich

    Good picture.. looks like a fine yard and garden . and Spring well under way .. Locally I think we are skipping spring we had that early warm/cold tornadic start to Spring early and now 85F-90+F (~30+C) which feels like Summer ...

    Seems a lot of people have deserted their "real" cameras for phones, particularly for normal focal lengths.
