Just one small red Japanese maple
and some late afternoon sunlight.
And warmth
and birdsong (which you, sadly, can’t hear in these photos even if I can remember it clearly)
and the honeyed fragrance of the arbutus flowers just above, to the left, out of the frame. . .
Exquisite shifting of reds, dark to light,orange to burgundy . . .
That’s all I have for you today. . .
Sigh. That's all I've got.
*sigh*
Honeyed air – that just about sums up the entire South Island. It's intoxicating. So glad that I'm not the only one taking it all in!
One small maple but WOW it packs a punch of colour!
Who needs more that the warmth of a red maple in the sun and the song of a bird in the air. Have a great weekend!
How beautiful!
Exquisite. One of my favourite words.
Sigh…
