A damselfly posing on a garden post against a very blue sky. Although it looks dark in colour because it’s backlit, it’s actually copper coloured to a large part

Photo of back garden and neighbour’s house. Most of the image is dark green but sky is strong blue. Just peaking through the trees is a bright bit of light, the moon rising. The image also has a light streak in the sky but that is a reflection on the window the image was taken from.
View over south London houses, pink sunset in the background.
Life size wildlife puppets made of cardboard and wood, animated by people dressed in black, arriving at Seven Dials (a small roundabout in Covent Garden, London). I’m not great at identifying the larger animals. It looks like some kind of ox in the foreground and maybe a roan antelope with tall twisty horns in the background. Many spectators around the circle looking excited and entranced.
A plastic storage container full of dark purple berries!
A bulb of garlic with a length of dried stem on a wooden counter. The bulb still as a bit of dried mud on it.

Overhead shot of a wooden table covered in containers with green and red tomatoes and some mid state between green and red. They are mostly cherry tomato size and plum tomatoes. I haven’t counted them but I think they’re around 300, as a rough estimate. Plus two red peppers and one small yellow pepper alongside
A side plate (around 5” diameter) filled with ripe small to medium tomatoes, mostly red but a few purple
Two tomatoes: larger than cherry tomatoes but not much larger. They are almost ripe, red but still with some green streaks. They’re placed on an aqua coloured table c
A long haired ginger and white cat, sitting as if formal posing on a dustbin, with fluffy white fur like an Elizabethan ruff around his neck.
