Autumnal Colours

The Front Street

Front street, autumn colours

Looking east along the front street. The foreground tree is right on the property line - entirely accidental, I am sure. As you can see, the trees are at varying stages of colour.

Front street, autumn colours

The dividing line tree, all on its own.

Front street, autumn colours

Red and green leaves. The background leaves are just starting to loose their green colour, whereas the foreground ones are just about completely lacking green. Come a bit of wind, or heavy rain, and they will fall off.

The Back Yard

Tree outside back fence

This is the (I think) oak tree just outside the back fence, with the sun behind it and the sun's rays catching the spider webs on the tree.

Tree outside back fence with aircraft and vapour trail

The top of the tree, and a passing aircraft's vapour trail. These trails are quite common around here, whereas they are hardly ever seen in Sydney. I presume the upper air here is colder, and perhaps more moist too.

Flowers

New camelia bloom

One of the new camilia's flowers. They are quite pretty, although not all that large.

Late blooming rose

A very late rose bloom. And a bloom well past its prime!
