Seeking sun and other matters

Yesterday I cleaned out the water filled rusty fire pit. It looked disgusting and was not good for the local wildlife. I checked it out the morning to ensure the water was clear. The photo below shows an unusual green colour as the metal begins to rust again under water  - not sure what is causing that - but the water was clear.

On my walk a trail of blue objects led me to this gorgeous Satin Bowerbird bower - a delicate and beautiful performance area.



I was attracted to a roadside bed of flowers all facing the morning sun.


And what about the hopeful and delicate seed on the bitumen road; and the road map in a dried leaf.



The maples are a glorious colour at the moment.


The last moments of a sunset on Monday was just full of layers and contrasts.


Much to rejoice about in nature that surrounds us.

  2. All beautiful, Barry, but that seed on the road is a wonderful photo. Your description of "hopeful" says it all. What an eye you have for the miraculous...
