How different the world looks within split seconds sometimes, just from a slight breath of wind in the leaves or a flick of the wrist! Here exemplified by one of last year's corn flowers.
#photography #bloomScrolling

a blurry horizontal format closeup of a light blue cornflower mostly in shadow but hit by a ray of sunlight from behind. the background consists of various out of focus green foliage

an almost identical view to the previous image, but the sunlight is hitting the cornflower a bit differently, and the image is less blurry

again the same cornflower, seen from a similar angle as before, but the light hitting it slightly different

just split seconds apart, almost the same yet completely different images, just because a leaf or three moved in the wind

gardening trivia of the day / no I don't want to get into roses I am just rabbit holing rose varieties and gardens for no reason
#TIL #roses

Screenshot of the following text:

Madame Caroline Testout was a late 19th-century French dressmaker from Grenoble, the proprietor of fashionable salons in London and Paris. She regularly purchased silks from Lyon, which was an important center for rose breeding. The nurseryman Joseph Pernet-Ducher was called 'The Wizard of Lyon' due to his success in developing hybrid tea roses. Madame Testout was an astute businesswoman and understood the value of good publicity. She asked Perner-Ducher to …

Screenshot of the following text:

In 1915, Jesse A. Currey, rose hobbyist and Sunday editor of the Oregon Journal, convinced city officials to institute a rose test garden to serve as a safe haven during World War I for hybrid roses grown in Europe. Rose lovers feared that these unique plants would be destroyed in the bombings. The Park Bureau approved the idea in 1917 and by early 1918, hybridists from England began to send roses. In 1921, Florence Holmes Gerke, the landscape architect for …

The kind of autist who is too skint to buy proper headphones but will get terminally attached to that one and ONLY THAT ONE pair of cheap earplugs that she can stand, and then years later identifies the model and oh look, yeah they do actually technically sound better than the other equally cheap ones, yes I do actually hear the difference between 5-24kHz frequency range and 20-20kHz.

closeup looking down on a small bouquet made of 3 tulips, two pink and one yellow, in a slender glass vase standing on a wooden table, in diffuse light of an overcast day

#bloomscrolling #photography #tulips

closeup of a pink and white tulip flower seen from above, hit by direct sunlight from the upper left side of the image

the same view as before, but now the sunlight is hitting more of the area behind the flower, illuminating it from behind and making it appear to glow from inside. the colors are much more saturated in this image even though barely anything has "really changed"

at the very end of tulip season I allowed myself to cut a bouquet. having it on my desk might have been a mistake - I got utterly and completely hypnotized by the way how the wind in the tree outside my window that is filtering the sunlight coming in made them look differently from split second to split second. so hard to look away. so many pictures taken. so many decisions to make. but now tulip season is truly over.
which one do you like better, and why?

closeup of a bouquet of wilting tulips in shades of light pink and dark yellow tending orange. some flowers are already more wilted than others, the whole thing unevenly lit from the upper left

the same view as in the previous image, just lit slightly differently with slightly different shadow patterns

horizontal closeup of an intensely orange tulip flower in bright sunlight, seen from the side, with one petal rolling outwards showing the stamen inside. The sunlight casts dramatic shadows on the flower. The background consists of green foliage and black shadows

horizontal closeup of an intensely orange tulip flower in bright sunlight, seen from the side, zooming in so close that the top of the flower is cut off and the rest takes up the vast majority of the picture space. The background consists of green foliage and black shadows

a similar view as in the previous image, but looking even more deeply into the flower, with even less of the background visible. a very intensely orange image, with most of the insides of the flower in shadow, but the yellow stamen just peeking out into the sun, making it extra visible in contrast to its darker shadowy orange surroundings

ugh I will have to get into turning photos into videos won't I? Because this is fun but I NEED MORE COLORS.
dammit, I just want to look at pretty pictures. Pretty moving pictures maybe as it may be, but...
Anyway, if anybody here has experience and knows what the most pain free way is to turn a series of photos into a short video while using linux and not spending money, I'd appreciate advice (*from people with experience*) in this case.

The estate of David Lynch is currently being auctioned off and I got curious and went through all the things on offer so you don't have to (ok I was just bored but). The stuff I found most intriguing turned out to be his self-made or self-restored furniture, like these:
