It is not much of a shot but there is a story there. It looks like my tenants (Eurasian collared doves living on my garden) played a prank on me. You see, last Friday (on the World Photography Day) I went out onto my south second floor terrace to check upon those magnolia seeds No big change there, not worth documenting. Then I looked a bit up and just in front of me I saw this! A nest placed on a magnolia branch, less than 2 meters from me. Obviously nobody was home. The family moved out, but I can observe them almost every day when the three of them sit at the balustrade of my upper balcony and the parents feed the little one (it is a bit smaller than the adults). Now how come that I didn't spot them earlier when they occupied the nest? How did they disguise? No idea! Do doves laugh? They must have been laughing seeing me so near and not noticing them. ----- Samsung NX10

Now I'll wait for those magnolia seeds to open their red eyes :) ----- Asus Zenfone Red eyes:

Worldwide Pinhole Photography Day 2022 (my magnolia is bravely blooming in spite of how its buds were damaged by the winter attack at the beginning of April; flowers are partly brownish again...) ----- Pinhole 0.2 mm + Kodak T-Max 100 + Kodak HC-110 (Dil. B)

My sweet magnolia started to open its buds three days ago. Oh... ----- Asus Zenfone

I am waiting for this alien to visit my garden again :) ----- Olympus C-220Z

My sweet magnolia is coping with aftermath of two frosty nights but I'd rather not show the frost damage in color. ----- Samsung NX10 and Silver Efex Pro 2 press [Z]

Have a great and healthy weekend! HFF! ----- Olympus C220Z

My magnolia survived some frosty nights and is still blooming. But it has lost most of its flowers since this shot was taken, because of very strong winds we had here. ----- Olympus XA + Kodak T-Max 400 + Kodak HC-110 (Dil.B)

My magnolia is blooming again. Almost every year when it is blooming, there comes a sudden frost and destroys the flowers. But the tree survives, and is even more beautiful next time. So do not despair, resurrection is real. ----- Samsung NX10
