Green because I feel spring is coming, circles because I like them. I used Paper53 for iPad to create the above and applied a process filter.

Village green
Most of the suburbs in Sydney have an oval surrounded by a park. It is a focal point for cricket matches in the Summer and Australian Rules Football (AFL) games during the Winter months. They remind me of village greens.
The above is in Petersham Park, sadly threatened by plans to build the West Connex motorway.
Glimpse of a realm
Is it a trick of the light?
Wishful thinking?
Or a glimpse of an unseen realm?
I like to think this green man or tree spirit allowed me to see him in Petersham Park, Sydney, NSW, Australia.
Nothing in particular
In a bid to make space on my iPad I was merrily deleting pictures when I came across this one. At first sight a leafy space in the local park containing bouganvillea. The contrast of focus from blurred to sharp and the vibrant colours captured my attention. I particularly like the juxtaposition of green, brown, red and mauve.
Yuletide reminder
Sydney, Australia, is in that Spring phase when it’s warm one day (22oC) and chilly the next (17oC).
On the cooler days the red and green of this gum tree remind me of Yuletide in northern hemisphere.
Rosette
The arrangement of this dandelion’s leaves caught my eye
Feeding time
The dark green leaves, red stems and sparkly flowers caught my eye. The bee was a pleasant surprise.

Green memories
The warm stone and brick facade of St. Francis Xavier’s Cathedral contrasted against an ominous sky caught my eye during a recent visit to Adelaide, South Australia.
Once darkness had fallen the road washed with green light in front of the Cathedral reminded me of two hymns from my childhood:
The first filled me with sadness, in contrast, I always enjoyed belting out the second, have I mentioned I was a chorister until my voice broke?
Morning green
I couldn’t resist snapping this picture on Saturday morning. The early morning light brought out the lush green of the grass. For your pleasure a worm’s eye view.
