And although it doesn’t make sense
I held my own hand
As a small sign of trust
And together I sat on the fence”

I spotted this mushroom on my hike at Grouse Mountain, North Vancouver, B.C. I was super careful not to fall on the cliff to get the right angle to shoot this mushroom. I didn’t stop shooting until I’m happy on the outcome. Taken with iPhone 13Pro

Laidley is a rural town in the Lockyer Valley in Queensland with population 3,809. This incredible house is located just outside the town. Has a beautiful big fence and gate although they are showing signs of age as is the house. I’ve been trying to find the history of the house ‘Windermere’ but haven’t had any success yet. Will keep trying 🤞
