It's not all over! A few beautiful #Rhododendron are flowering right now: the late-flowering Rh. auriculatum looks and smells like a lily, whilst there's a late second flush from Rh. riparioides. Worth hunting down in our species collection!

Last Sunday's frosty outing at Bergen University Gardens with a telelens. Barely anything to see, improvised some landscape reflections at 300mm. Can't ignore any longer that the dreaded season of quiet woodlands and long nights has arrived...

Arrived very late last night at our home near Bergen. Woke up at sunrise - I can never get tired of seeing this glorious view of Fanafjord with nearby Arboretet Bergen University Gardens and mountains receding into the distance.
