Yes, it's outside. I think it's a bulb from last season because I don't think
we planted any this time. And if we had, we wouldn't have planted it right

I hope they truly allow all M lenses to work without the little green button
routine, I imagine they will also do away with the lens stop down mechanism,
and my 40 plus years with Pentax will come to a close.
