Last Photo for August 2023
Everyone who contributes their good and not so good photos has fun I hope. I enjoy seeing your photos. Thanks to those being brave enough to show everyone your last photo or photos from your phone and camera.
It doesn’t have to be on the very last day of the month if you didn’t take any photos. Maybe it was earlier in the month when the last photo was taken.
So let’s see what you have for August 2023
The rules are simple:
1. Post the last photo on your SD card or last photo on your phone for the 30th July or whenever your last photo was taken.
2. No editing – who cares if it is out of focus, not framed as you would like or the subject matter didn’t cooperate.
3. You don’t have to have any explanations, just the photo will do
4. Create a Pingback to this post or link in the comments
5. Use the tags The Last Photo and #LastOnTheCard
Here’s mine. Last months photos really is a mixed bag. Some may seem familiar.
From my Samsung Galaxy S9
From my Canon PowerShot SX70HS
From my Canon EOS 1300D
I like them all, Brian!

Now that would be so eclectic. Be good to be able to post it anonymously.
Ahhh now I realise. I still used a paper list so an arty photo of that would be eclectic. I guess yours is a tick the electronic box sort I see people heads down in the supermarket finding what they want via their phone.

No. I’m a paper list person. But I know myself too well. I knew I’d forget to take my friend’s list with me. And I did.

It’s not a Wallaby. Wallabies are ground dwelling animals. This is a Brush-tailed Possum. Thank you for asking Marianne. I enjoy informing people about Australian animals 🙂

Thank you ever so much Judy. Possums are cute but a pain around the house since it’s been very dry. They chew my garden plants that don’t normally get eaten.
That is a small Stingless Native Bee on the Gerbera 🙂

It turns out that no matter how many pictures you leave in the camera, there’s only one “last photo.” Two pictures, to days in late August. Sorry it took me so long to post. It will be up in the morning.
That is one adorable marsupial there! He looks like he sees you and is waiting for your picture.

I like the range you’ve shown us from different devices. They’re all great, but maybe the gerbera gets a petal in front of the possum.
