summer '2019 impressions
Let me share a few masterpiece created by Mother Nature, that sound amazing to me. All those captures are my impressions from the pre-Covid epoch, shot during the summer of 2019.
A small macro-study: the leaf of a tree, "diseased" (afflicted with galls), in the magical light of the setting sun. The time-bleached wood of the walls of the house served as a successful background. Worked a perfect model for me!

My naturalist kid used to spend a lot of time with a net, and study the biodiversity of the local pond and ditch. Among others, we met with a newt, dragonfly larvae, and this wonderful axolotl salamander. She caught five of them, and after studying and documenting, of course we released them back.
I hope that numerous viewings of cartoons about nature, BBC documentaries and reading popular science books led to the intended result - the child fell in love with nature and "our smaller brothers" and will not abuse them just for the sake of curiosity.
Моя детка-естествопытатель кучу времени проводила с сачком, и изучала био-разнообразие местного пруда и канавы. В числе прочих, мы познакомились с тритоном, личинками стрекозы, и вот этой замечательной саламандрой-аксолотлем. Она поймала пять штук, и после изучения и документирования, конечно мы их выпустили обратно.
Я надеюсь, что многочисленные просмотры мильтфильмов про природу, документальных фильмов ВВС и чтение научно-популярных книг привело к задуманному результату - ребенок полюбил природу и "наших меньших братьев" и не будет их абьюзить просто так, ради любопытства.
Spiders patiently sit in the ambush...
Guess what it is?
In the photo: cantaloupe melon. Harvest? Of course not! It grew in the Caribbean, we don't grow melons like that in our area. I bought it in a store, I really liked its smell - for several days I just kept it at home, and every night it filled the air in my room with a beautiful, wonderful fragrance. Then we ate it. She was very small!
На фото: дыня-канталупа. Урожай? Нет, конечно! Это выросло на Карибских островах, у нас в нашей местности такие дыни не растут. Я купил ее в магазине, мне очень понравился ее запах - несколько дней я просто держал ее дома, и каждую ночь она наполняла воздух в моей комнате прекрасным, чудесным благоуханием ароматом. Потом мы ее съели. Она была очень маленькой!
That summer, I dug up some pine trees in the local woods and transplanted them to a nearby (abandoned) lot. Daughter me in planting those seedling. (It was not easy to dig in the ground, hold the tree and take pictures at the same time - dirty hands, you can see for yourself!)
Тем летом я выкопал несколько сосенок в местном лесочке, и пересадил на соседний (брошенный) участок. Дочка помогала! (Было нелегко одновременно копаться в земле, держать деревце и фотографировать - грязные руки, сами видите!)
As a bonus, you can see our cat overseer have visited the fresh plantings, and approved them. Sweet memories! Alas, this cat-lady is no longer with us ... we have orphaned.

How wonderful @qwerrie
The leave looks a bit surreal with the added texture of the disease.
The salamander is pretty cool and what great to hear your daughter learnt to respect nature and all living creatures. You must be very proud 😊
Transplanting trees, such a good cause to help other areas to develop.
Thanks for sharing the photographs and the story behind them with us 🥰
Have a great start of the new week!
Yeah, especially the pines. Pines forests are the best, and more healthy. Also -- especially good for mushrooms xD
They are beautiful.
Walked today in the mountains here with loads of pines next to the path. Not a forest yet… but still beautiful. It gave us some shade hiking up to the top.
Have soon some really tiny fungi on a dead branch. 😉
I am sure your smartphone can do the job well, and you did not forget to capture 🍄🍄 those little fellows xD
No I didn’t forget to photograph them 🍄🍄 they were smaller then my finger nail… 😉

Правильное воспитание ребёнка, любовь к природе надо прививать с детства.
Красивые фото!!!
угу. привили. например, не боится (совсем! чуть не целует) пауков и лягушек.
но все равно - мобилки и чатики любит гораздо больше. учили одному, а этому научилась сама (((((((
нельзя же во всём от родителей зависить :-)
эхх.......
-- чему вы учились в университете?
-- как всякий нормальный студент: изучал выпивку, наркотики, девушек...
ага...
не скучал значит 🤣
