Reflections...

Spring in New Zealand is usually a very wet season, and over the past few weeks it has been no different. Not far from our house there is this property that has a large field in the front with a lovely stand of trees. Through the Spring the field becomes a bit of a lake, and on a nice day the reflections are just lovely.

Last Saturday on the way home from the beach we stopped so that I could take some shots....
Enjoy.

Magnificent Magnolia.....

Spring is now here, the trees are sprouting green leaves, blossoms are out and the Magnolias are all out and are stunning.

This year the trees are loaded with blossoms, and they seem to me to be pinker and larger than last year.
These images were taken at the Botanical Gardens....

Wednesday is 'Hump Day'....




It's now all downhill until the weekend...

Fine weather, sunshine for one whole day, no rain people....

If this continues there will be no muddy floors from a certain dog that doesn't know how to wipe his feet...

No using the dryer to get the clothes dry, we will be able to hang them out on the line and bring them in  all dry...

We could have some lovely days to walk at the beach, days like last Saturday when the sun came out for a short while...

Looking up at the top of the cliff, using my telescopic lens, check out the little bird in the air..





And don't forget, that after Wednesday there is Thursday, aka 'Friday Eve'

'Chill' it's Friday and it's Spring...

Have a great Friday everyone, and a wonderful weekend ahead. Thought I would share these with you.










and it's Spring. At long last, after weeks of rain we have had two days in a row of dry, warm weather and overnight the blossoms have arrived.

There is a lovely old villa on the way to work that every Spring looks stunning. I stopped on my way home to snap a few shots.
