Cats and dwarfs.
And we are back to the city of Wroclaw and the gazillion of tiny streets that one can get lost in (not literally; it's hard to actually get lost there). And even though I probably have seen all of them

Horses and webs
Shooting against the light can be so much fun! And give pretty interesting results. Usually I do that when I want to catch some nice silhouettes. No Photoshop needed :) But this time it was a perfect way

The blue pot
I am a tiny bit (as if) late with this post. I had photos taken a few months ago when the blooms were all open and looking beautiful. Today not even stems are left, and the plant is growing away. But things

FungiFriday - delicious shrooms and decaying wood.
Autumn forests have this charm that I cannot resist. And it's not just the mushrooms that I love to pick and shoot, but everything else too. The fresh, humid air, the colours, the calmness - so much different

Autumn with Black horehound
They are not afraid of colder air and shorter, autumn days. They will still bloom wherever they can, enjoying whatever is left before the winter frost kills them. The wild growing herds that are treated

When nature takes over
A pile of rubble that was left alone on the side of our orchard slowly disappears. We planted some trees there - pines, birches, and a willow tree long time ago. They grew huge, giving a nice shadow and

These photos were taken in September last year. A whole year they had to wait to be finally edited and published. Why now? Because we survived summer! And even though the temperatures are still a bit high

New feather cactus and one that just doesn't stop blooming.
I tried to stay strong and not buy any new plants. I really tried. And I managed for over a year. Mainly because I managed to kill a few of my favourite cacti and got a bit demotivated. The rest kept them

Small and insignificant
I have always wondered how does it feels like when the ground you stand on is shaking. One of those things I did not really want to feel but was just curious about the feeling. Well, now I know. This morning,

I am a lion!
This is one of my mom's cats. And I think it is her favourite one, as it is the fluffiest and the most friendly. Though they are all super adorable. This big boy is the oldest of the bunch and is a father

Low angle testing
Firstly you have to find the smallest flowers or other tiny objects close to the ground. After you do that, sacrifice your knees and elbows to be able to lower the camera so low that it is almost the ground

Huernia thuretii in bloom again.
Previously I was showing this guy nearly four years ago in this post and it was a lot bigger back then. What happened, you may ask? Well.. it started to overgrown the pot it was in, so I decided to plat

At the very end of the vegetable garden, where nothing useful is growing anymore, is a wild zone. No fruits, no veggies... just some self-sown flowers and weeds that tend to sneak through the fence and

FungiFriday - ashes and tiny green cities
The terribly hot week in Portugal is resulting in nearby fires. There haven't been many of them this year yet. At least comparing to previous years, but they always occur in summer. In the fall, when you

Yellow smoke
Early spring, for a very short time, the Forsythia bush is the star of most gardens, parks, and little green areas near the roads. In Poland, it is so popular that it is almost weird not to see it blooming

FungiFriday - Work in progress
Rotten birches seem to be very inviting for different types of fungi. Just one walk around the forest, and I found a few of them laying around. I am not sure if they were cut down, or they lost a battle
