540 Mixed Company

This is most likely the end of the Meyer lemons.  I like the combination of the limes with the lemons in my favorite bowl.

The morning glory flower is so delicate and only lasts one day, changing quite dramatically throughout the day.  Near late afternoon, the white stripes turn to purple.

122 North Point Lighthouse Optic Section

121 North Point Lighthouse With Cloudy Sky

Visiting this lighthouse for the first time was very timely.  I was in the midst of reading The Light Between  Oceans, a novel by M. L. Stedman, which I thoroughly enjoyed.  The story takes place on a small island off Australia, and is about the lighthouse keeper and his wife, the only inhabitants of the island, and a decision they make which will affect their lives forever.   The rest you'll have to read for yourself.  One of my all time favorite books.

111. Sunflowers in a Cobalt Vase

I am getting my money's worth from these sunflowers in terms of paintings.  The petals' edges are starting to curl and darken, but that is part of their charm.
