Without Prejudice 3

My white lily plants have shot up from nothing to ~75cm tall in nearly no time!

Around 20 years ago there was road construction in my locale that forced me to drive an alternate route to my office at the time. The alternate route took me past a Lutheran church that had a flashing LED sign placed out where passing cars would see it. One morning a traffic clog stuck me in place for awhile close to the sign. Which was slowly flashing in sequence: THERE IS … NO GOD … BUT GOD … THERE IS … etc. I watched the sequence a couple times before realizing: photo op! But I had no camera with me.

The next day I drove out before the morning traffic rush, camera in tow, prepared to take a photo of a church declaring its disbelief in big red letters. But they'd changed the sequence.    Drat!

Sadly, I was not able to get a pic of one highway billboard that I saw while travelling:

Jesus is Lord.
ANY QUESTIONS?

I like your tar shots, Eric. The third is strangely familiar

Nice.
I did something similar, cannot believe it's 10 years ago ...

   Parts of my lawn are looking very street this spring. Rain forecast for next Tuesday, so I may scatter some seed Monday evening.

Spiffy pics, Eric & Stefan.    Some of my fav subject matter when using b&w film. Something I should return to…

Currently fixated on my nascent white lilies. 

#1: Leitz 40/2 Summicron-C at f/2.4. (Mike Johnston at The Online Photographer is also a fan of this lens. The Minolta Rokkor version he spotlights uses the same optical design.)
#2: 7Artisans 50/1.1 wide open.

Yes, some guy ripped it off to use it for his avatar. I should sue!

A proper spring day for once: warm in the sun, cool in the shade, with a nip in the air. And very windy. My park walk was brisk…took few photos. #1 has a *bird-y vibe to me, while in #2 the vine looks like an elongated snail. The tree in #2 is a fresh fall…probably came down during the night or earlier today.

*Not Birdy.

All these spring greens...

Aren't you clever Dave. This is good seeing even if it is anthropomorphic. To me they both look like snakes despite the two probes in the first image. The one that looks like outline of bird (especially when seen small)  struck me as a head devouring another animal.

My handbook of Valtellina flora (https://www.amazon.it/alpina-Valtellina-Valchiavenna-Roberto-Ferranti/dp/8897292089) says that Primula farinosa is rare in Valtellina, but last Saturday in Malghera there were really many of them (never seen so many) in glorious bloom (not very satisfied by the photo, indeed).
