Flowers of last Wednesday's walk

Last Wednesday on my walk I was struck by the fact that there still appeared to be quite a lot of flower blossoms on show even though we are half way through autumn - almost like nature being defiant and holding onto the colour of summer.

Anyway I thought I would share a few of the photos taken with the trusty iPhone. I love that you can still see the morning dew on some of the blossoms.

 

And of course it is the time of the year for Camelias - our terraces are just a riot of colour - about 40 Camelia bushes are in full bloom.

And the green of the Tree ferns contrast beautifully with the rust of the fire pit.

Nature often makes me know that it iOS good to be alive.
