52 Photographs - Week 2

There were several candidates for this week’s photograph. But since I'm limiting each post to just one, I chose this photograph.


Every day for the past six months I've walked by this plant. And it wasn't until two days ago I saw it for the first time. It's tucked behind some other bushes and after they lost all their foliage, there it was. I looked it up online and this is what I found. It is a Nandina domestica Thunb. Its common name(s) are:

  • Nandina
  • Heavenly bamboo
  • Sacred-bamboo
  • Chinese-bamboo
  • Southern heaven-bamboo
  • Nanten

Its uses are:

  • Environmental
    • ornamental
  • Medicine
    • folklore
  • Weed

“Tri-X, f/8, and be there.“
