Hi Folks
I just posted another set of my camera club entries in my images section.
We are off to Oz in ten days time, visiting family and friends. Quite a number of photo-opportunities planned this time.

I believe it is to the south coast of Oz?
Hope you love it as much as I'd love to be there.

Thanks for starting a Daily for us, Pete. Have a great trip.
Hi MFI. To answer your question, no I didn't eat the Brussels sprouts; they were my wife's. Besides, I've never bought in to the logic of "an acquired taste". The way I view it, if something is distasteful the first time, why would I want to repeat the unpleasant experience?
Yesterday was a fine day: clear skies, temps in the mid to upper 60s, and no wind. So it seemed a good day to photograph one variety of yellow flowers (sorry but I don't know the name) in the front yard.
After cleaning out a lot of debris left all over the yard by recent strong winds I decided to focus on different parts of the flowers.
1) With the focus on the nearest petals...
A different flower of the same type, this time with the focus on the structures in the middle of the flower...
I'm not sure which I prefer. Each has some things that I like and others that I'm dissatisfied with.

Dave, all of the Brassicas have distasteful properties. It really does come down to how well they are grown and harvested that makes them edible at all.
