Gardening success. #gardening #berries #redcurrants

This is proving quite therapeutic

Look at these beautiful little edible jewels. #allotment #RedCurrants #fruit #jewelry

2 important questions at this time of year round here:

1. Are the red currants ripe in time to make the tart I like for Christmas Day?

2. Will I succeed in keeping the birds away from them?

Happily this year the answer to both questions is yes! I also picked the first black currants of the season 😍

Tomorrow I will be among the hordes making Christmas desserts 😆 Picked the currants today because the weather forecast is dodgy.

I picked a few of these beauties this morning - the first of the season 😍

Birds love them, so I was worried they might break into the netting and claim them - it’s happened here before!

Samsung Galaxy S23 color study:

Top image captured in RAW format with Pro shooting mode; adjusted exposure, contrast, and shadows to get as close to real-world color as I could get.

Second image captured in JPEG format with Photo shooting mood and "intelligent optimization" set to "maximum." No edits (other than the crop) manually applied to this image.

Third image captured in JPEG format with Food shooting mode. No edits (other than the crop) manually applied to this image.

The unreal colors in the software-"enhanced" images are exactly why I started shooting in Pro mode several months ago. No thank you, Samsung, I'll do it myself 🫸

The other day I posted a sketch for a chalk drawing of a catbird eating red currants, and today I did the drawing on the driveway. And now it's raining! Ahhhhh, evanescence!
