We have a very old camelia bush in our backyard. It’s more like a tree and is heavily laden with flowers at the moment.

I’m loving discovering all of the flowers on our still new property. We’ve been here almost 9 months and the winter flowers are now out.  This is a protea.

Now winter is here we’re seeing a different variety of flowers in the garden. There are bulbs springing up everywhere and some of the Australian natives are flowering. Below is a Jonquil and a Protea.

This one I pass whenever driving up to my daughter’s so had to stop to take some photos.

Aren’t the Maple Trees beautiful at Autumn time? This is in a park not far from home.

As Autumn here is drawing nearer to winter the colours are getting more vibrant on the trees and on the ground.  The next few days are of my own grounds or gardens and parks not far from where we live.

This photo was taken after a rainfall at dusk.

I’ve begun experimenting with photography at dusk and some photos have worked and others not. I really haven’t done much with flash before but thought this one turned out nicely.  It’s a banksia in flower.
