2025 Little Easy Bean Network - Growers Of The Future Will Be Glad We Saved

It's a miracle - we had some sunshine today! It wasn't for long, but I ran out there for 30 minutes this afternoon to catch up with photos for the year's beans. It's amazing how quickly the quality of light fades at this time of year. The illumination is warm and orange-ish the later in the day it gets, awful really. I think for the next couple weeks every time the sun peeks out I'll have my work cut out for me.

I agree with @Decoy1 about the sun VS the shade photos. Maybe it's also the time of year with the sun's light angle being so much lower. The sunlight photos have too much shadowing wiping too much of the seeds detail. I like your shade photos better.

My plans to mail the beans out yesterday got majorly sidetracked by some health issues with my husband. Some medication changes and all seems to be well at the moment. Upon looking at some of the bean photos I took, it's probably a good thing as some aren't very good. So tentatively speaking it will likely be next week before they start their journey.

@heirloomgal I prefer the pictures in shade too. One thing I really noticed about natural light this year is that variations show up that aren't visible inside. Unfortunately I took the plastic off my make-shift greenhouse months ago as it was the perfect place for bean photos.
