It may have practical significance - consider parking behind the sign, as the white vehicle has done. Were the sign truly vertical, this would use much more road space and restrict parking; as it is, perpendicular to the road, it is optimal. Just sayin’

There’s a small plant growing in my neighborhood park that no one else seems to notice as they walk past. It’s known as perfoliate bellort, and it produces tiny delicate flowers for a very short period in early spring. I make a point of taking photos of it each year, so here it is for 2026:

In case anyone is curious, this it what it looks like along the creek:

That’s stunning… thanks for sharing. I’ll look out for similar in my local area… maybe, just maybe we’ll have something similar!

I wonder, what lens and exposure parameters was that shot with? It looks pretty clean and sharp

Thank you. This was taken with my Canon R7 and Laowa 60mm f/2.8 macro, handheld at 1/200", f/4 and ISO 400. Its a totally manual lens and quickly becoming my favorite!

Did you sustain any injuries or damage?
