Seems that nature is matching its surroundings at the moment. When we drive down the hill towards our home all you can see is yellow, green and gold, and some brown. The leaves on the ground matching the picket fence of our front yard. It really stands out from the rest of the street which…

The Colours of Autumn VI
More colours of Autumn. This time from my own garden.
The Colours of Autumn V
We’ve been told here in Melbourne that Winter has arrived early and is staying. brrr. It has been pretty cold and wet of late. But the leaves are still there and falling, quite colourful. Probably won’t be long before the trees are bare.
The Colours of Autumn IV
I loved this pathway when I saw it. Nature’s colours scattered for us to enjoy and remember.
The Colours of Autumn III
Maple trees produce such beautiful colours at this time of year. I’ve planted a couple in my garden but need to plant many more. In the meantime the George Tindale Gardens had plenty on display.
The Colours of Autumn II
It’s not yet Winter but Autumn this year in Victoria, Australia is very cold and wet. We’ve had snow already in the mountains, plus hail and sleet.

They like to chew the nuts or whatever it is the trees are producing. All day long, during daylight, there is this constant banging as they drop their castoffs below…
The essence of Autumn
I love the colours in this shot. Such a display of what Autumn is about – colour and mess! Here at home our own trees are changing colour and look beautiful but on the ground there is such a mess to clean up! This photo was taken at the Alfred Nicholas gardens and not long…
Spring Festival
One of the things I like about being in the Dandenong Ranges is all the gardens that are open for display at this time of year. My husband and I went to the Tulip Festival on Saturday but it was hard to get decent shots because there were so many people around. I’m planning to…
Pretty Azalea
We have quite a few different Azaleas in our garden too. This one is so pretty.
Sparaxis
We’ve got quite a few of these coming up all over our lawn and under the Oak Tree. Different colours.
