Yard Work
/I had a high-priority bit of yard work to do after we set up the bunkbed frame for the camping gear: clear out the regrowth of the invasive pear tree in the crepe myrtle. On closer inspection there was another plant that was not the crepe myrtle also growing around the base.
I opted to leave the cuttings in the wheelbarrow to dry out/reduce their bulk before I put them in the compost ring. I left the wheelbarrow on the patio under the deck and decided to photograph the longer crepe myrtle stem in the red wagon.
Took pictures of the bark, flowers, buds, and forming seed pods of the crepe myrtle…. appreciating the ease of my phone for some quick macros.
A little bit of yard work…that morphed into a photo shoot!
