Shrimp flower

My Kitchen window

Has no view, except a fence.  I try to bring in a bit of the garden to keep me company while I do the dishes.

Autumn Colors

Autumn in the southern hemisphere is March to June.  There are not as many deciduous trees here, seems to be mostly imports.  When you see them it is somewhat unexpected and surprising.  I think "oh it is fall here".  The days are much shorter and a lot cooler.  Next week there will be rain.

Solar Shadows

Nerine sarniensis

What a nice surprise to find in my Autumn garden.
