Wednesday Vignette, Top Nine...

If you're on Instagram you've probably seen the "Top Nine" grids that get posted at the end of the year. It's a fun way to look back at a year in photos, as ranked by visitor "likes". Here's mine for 2020, the number in the cloud (a new feature this year) is the number of likes the photo received ...Six of the nine images are from my garden: four are front garden vignettes, one a close-up of a mahonia growing on the north side of the house (middle row, left), and one a back garden vignette (the bromeliads and dish planters, also middle row, right). The two planty photos that aren't from my garden are bottom row; left and middle. These were both taken in other Portland gardens. Then of course there is Kamala. I ran across this image of HER and the past VP's the night the election was finally called for Biden/Harris, I found it to be so powerful that I posted it, even though I couldn't properly attribute it. That's a fact that still bothers me—having had my own photos reposted with out attribution—but hopefully the creator of the image will forgive me.
