My first day back in Provence. We went to the Lourmarin market and I opted for two produce cliches, more to come.

 

Norfolk Island pine, Garden

 It took a bit of a hit in the freeze, but the green is reemerging.

Monsteras

Clyde's Banana post-freeze

 The same frost nailed all of the banana plants in the area. I love the look of folded paper. They will come back.

We had a rare heavy frost here a few weeks ago. It got down to 22f -5.5c and knocked the garden into next week. For the first time in decades I feared that i might lose the Monstera. These leaves are in the first stages of frost burn. I lost every leaf on every plant This week the first green baby leaves appeared. Yay.

 

Sego leaves, garden

 Beautiful light this afternoon and I used the Voigtlander APO-Lanthar 35mm. Lovely lens. Thanks Kirk.
