I can't tell you when exactly the photographs in today's post were taken. I mean, it was in May, that much I do know; in the first half of May this year, probably. Something is wrong with the part of my camera in charge of keeping the date and time continuity.

Anyway, it happened on one of the beautiful evenings in May, that's something I clearly remember. I also remember spending a bit less than an hour in Palera, the coastal, agriculture-oriented coastal area, a few hundred meters from the harbor of Liznjan and five or six kilometers from where I live.
Now, you may wonder how the hell I know the exact timing expressed in minutes of an event I don't remember the date. Well, I don't. The fifty-two minutes in the title are there only becouse the title sounded better that way to me than titles like "An Hour In Palera" or "Almost An Hour In Palera".
When it comes to photography, it wasn't among my most productive hours in Palera. I was more into leisure walking than the usual macro exploration, so I took only a few shots along the way.
Five days ago, I published a post titled "Thirty-seven Minutes With Cornus Sanguinea". There, I caught more stuff in fewer minutes.

This wide shot shows the Raphanus raphanistrum and a bit of the scenery. At that point, the plant was predominantly covered with pod-shaped fruits. Only a handful of flowers can be seen in the shot.

The scientific name of this species from the Pentatomidae family is Carpocoris purpureipennis.

In this photograph, a small Monacha cartusiana snail is posing on one of the many stems of the same Raphanus raphanistrum plant. A shriveled petal from a decaying flower fell on the shell and remained attached to it.

Here you can see a young Neoscona adianta spider that has built a sack-shaped shelter among the flowers at the top of the plant.

This colorful shield bug is the Eurydema ornata. It belongs to the Pentatomidae family, of course. The insect was posing on the fruit of the plant.

These are the Papaver apulum flowers. The photograph on the right was taken with the flash, the other without it.

This is a detail from the Rumex crispus plant. A small, dry fragment surrounded by green.

It's a bug from the Coreidae family. The scientific name of the species is Syromastus rhombeus.

Here you can see another lovely detail from the Rumex crispus plant. Another little cluster of dried-out, shriveled fruits in the sea of juicy green ones.
