I took this for #52frames #filltheframe, but I ended up submitting the #Gingko leaves that I recently posted instead. I still like this, but of course I'm biased since it's my #cat. She looks a bit fierce, which she isn't really, but she's ambivalent about the camera. She'll only sit still if I use the zoom lens from a distance :-) #photography #darktable #nikon #d200 #catsofpixelfed

A close-up of a cat's face, filling the whole frame. She has white fur with some dark stripes on the forehead and around the nose. She's staring directly at the camera

Lots of #gingko trees in my neighborhood, and until yesterday they looked wonderful in fall colors. A day of rain later, and they shed all the leaves - there's now a thick yellow carpet of leaves under each tree! I really like the fan shape, and I think the water droplets and structure in the leaves adds some visible interest. #52frames #filltheframe #photography #darktable #nikon #d200

A thick layer of yellow Gingko leaves on the ground, with their distinctive fan shape. There is a leaf lying in the center with a clear vein structure, and a few rain drops catching the light

#shortstory

Herbst mag ich. Leider ist die Zeit der bunten Blättern, Nebel, Kakao und kastaniensammelnden Kindern kurz. Aber intensiv. Ich mag das leuchtende Gelb der Gingkoblätter, die Herbststürme und das Beobachten von anderen Leuten, die aus dem Stand in Vorweihnachtsstress fallen. Herbst finde ich gut.

I like autumn. Unfortunately, the season of colorful leaves, fog, hot chocolate, and children collecting chestnuts is short. But intensive. I like the bright yellow of the gingko leaves, the autumn storms, and watching other people falling into pre-Christmas stress. I like autumn.

Autumn streets paved with gold.

Golden, fan-shaped gingko leaves conceal nearly all of the brick paving on which they have fallen. The leaves also partially cover the intricately intertwined circles of an iron grate that encircles the gingko's trunk.

Der #Gingko-#Baum leuchtet heuer wieder besonders schön, finde ich.

Baum vor Hausfassade, darunter drei Autos

I made some comforting & healthy #lotus #root + #gingko #nuts #soup for #breakfast. 😊

In #Teochew / #Chinese cultures, #symbolism includes foods we eat too.
Lotus roots signify abundance. Gingko signifies longevity.

This recipe is similar to our homestyle version (we don't use written recipes at home):

Close-up shot of a white bowl filled with a soup-like broth, showcasing large pieces of light-brown lotus root, and light-yellow ginkgo nuts. The lotus root slices feature multiple holes and a light brown hue, indicating they've been cooked, with a few visible specks on some pieces. The broth appears clear and slightly opaque, and a white spoon rests partially within the bowl.

Ginkgo leaves fallen on the sidewalk covered with snow. The leaves are still green because the snow fell unexpectedly early in the season.

Gingkofrugterne modner nu. De lugter ikke rart, kan næppe spises. Nødden inden i spises i Asien, men varsomt. Spiser man for mange kan det udløse epilepsi.
