~ E's yucca is flowering, a tall spire of many thick white waxy blossoms. I hope it last for a while so I can get back with the camera. I begin to notice that yuccas are in flower all over the place.
~ I paint my toenails at last, two shades of purple - aubergine and a slightly glittery pinkish one - with an edge of dragonfly-emerald.
Oh I love these. Are they Mrs Perry? I have a few in the garden, but they seem not to have come as robustly this year as the flaming oriental reds. The pinks have such a dusty beauty, like taffeta ball-gowns bleached by time and neglect. And those bruised hearts. Ravishing.

Those close ups are ~almost~ uncomfortably intimate.
You have reminded me to scatter the poppy seed that has been waiting in a twist of brown paper on the kitchen counter.
Beautiful images Lucy. Zhoen's right too!
The poppy photos are exquisite. I like how they also echo the purpleness of the nail polish you describe.
last photo is awesome!
