Light-shadow and carpets of colour

 

We are experiencing a dry spring period and the blossoming trees seem to be revelling in it as they are producing full canopies of red, purple and yellow. So much of that colour is drifting to the  ground and creating carpets of colour on the road as can be seen below. 

But also hearty plants are blossoming under the shade of other trees and catching the filtered light as seen in the opening photo. This has encouraged me to look more closely to notice how other blossoms appeared and created shadows in filtered light - see some below.

It is now the season for agapanthus starting with the whites and purples below.

I am forever grateful for the colour and joy of nature in our neighbourhood.
