fermi,

I wish I shared your adeptness with a camera!  T used to take reasonably good photos; but now,
I get too much movement even, with a tripod.

I am in USDA zone 8b where temperatures almost never fall below 15F -9.4C.  Rainfall 50" 110 cm + but none  June-September.  We seldom get snow; but when it comes we get 30" overnight. Soil is sandy loam with a lot of humus.

Hi Marc,
do you ever use a phone camera?
I think if you set it on video you can then take a screenshot of one frame to post,
