~ SkyWatch *11 Sunrise

This morning we had some clouds for a change,
at present, noon, it is 30C with a dessicating,
searingly hot northerly blowing. Great weather
for firestorms as the grass is already dry.

These sunrise photos are straight from the camera
and in sequence, a few minutes apart, from the
paddock just up hill from our house.



as the sun slipped in and out behind clouds, the
whole colour of the sky changed



the gold grew, and then faded to blue again



until it burst forth ito a whole sea of gold

My thanks to the great SkyWatch team for

the world are like, click on the logo to the right.

Spring ~ The Little Joys

A small flowering almond in it's second year

covered in blossom

The seasons are awry. This flowering cherry, for

the first time in 40 years, failed me on my birthday

Wisteria by our bedroom door greets me in the morning

The joy of lilac time beginning

A flush of pink this tree bedecks

whilst bluebells cluster roud it's feet

Malus floribunds, a haven for bees and Blue Wrens

and blazing pink ranunculas.
