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.
Red and green must be seen
My great local is Morton Park;
For walking Stan and birds to hark
Smell the Oleander tree,
Flowers, palms and shrubs to see,
Tall gums, gingers, lilies too;
Sunshine, clouds and skies of blue.
Space for picnics and to play,
Shortcut home or sit and stay.
The shades of red and green
Can’t be missed, must be seen!
Sabre Ficus
While enjoying the sunshine on the deck yesterday I noticed the way the light illuminated the various leaf colours of the Sabre or long leaf Ficus. I eagerly collected my camera so that I could capture the moment.
After a couple of close up shots I realised that the camera angle was all wrong. I returned to where I had been sitting on the day bed and took the picture from there.
Hey presto I am able to share the dark green to salmon pink scene with you.
Red ‘n’ green – Bottlebrush delight
I couldn’t resist taking a picture of one of my favourite Australian natives.
Cleanliness next to nature
Shower and bathe outside to the sound of birdsong while palm filtered sunlight illuminates your skin.
Winter beauties
Like a person possessed I have accumulated quite a number of pictures of flowers while in Port Douglas, Australia. The one on the left is a member of the ginger family, I have no idea what the other two are, any suggestions would be gratefully received.
