Would appreciate any species identification you can provide for any of these. I would have liked to post four photos as I have split my pics into four groups: flowers, trees, small flowers/weeds, grasses/bushes/shrubs.
Will likely post the other three images over time but I don't want to flood the forum all in one go.
I usually take photos like these when out walking as I like to pay attention to what's happening in different locations/different seasons. These photos are from a recent trip abroad - not used to finding such a variety of colour. My pics are usually of different leaves, buds, catkins and twigs - all browns, reds and greens.
I often wonder whether/what people in days gone by used the local plantlife for. Would like to increase my knowledge on this as a casual project over time. Seemingly unremarkable weeds that we see all the time and fail to consider, might have been sought after commodities in pre-historic, ancient or medieval times.
I think it was when first reading about gruit that I started to look differently upon previously overlooked verges at the side of a road etc. From there the rabbit hole deepens...
FYI, I believe you can insert individual photos into the BODY section. Just click the 'image' icon (3rd from left on Jerboa) and choose your photos. It will insert them into the main body of your post.
Also, I wanna say east coast US for these. Probably waaayyyy off. Nice photos, btw!
Thanks for the nudge on how to post more photos, and the compliment on the photos themselves ๐
East coast US must be a beautiful environment to explore. These pics are however from northern Italy, roughly latitudinally equal to the coast of Maine near the border with Canada. That kind of blows my mind because Italy seems quite southern to my European mindset.
