Then there was this amazing arrangement of red flowers inside. 3.Great is the Lord and most worthy of praise; his greatness no one can fathom. 4.One generation will commend your works to another; they will tell of your mighty acts. all sorts of red flowers combined... 5.They will speak of the glorious splendor of your majesty, and I will meditate on your wonderful works. 6. They will tell of the power of your awesome works, and I will proclaim your great deeds. from gladioli up the top to day lilies and hippeastrums too I think. 7.

a few flowers from one of my morning walks this week...the red one on the left is from the poinciana...a great spreading tree...it is only in later life that I have realized and noticed the one odd white speckled leaf that it has! and a trip to the hairdresser, and a small delay, led to my taking photos in the tiny little park there.... petunias and nasturtium.... the delicate little white flower above I know not the real name...the lady down the road used to call them Aunty Dot's weed!

I wonder how long it will take in the post. Fortunately I had just enough battery left to transfer most of my photos to my little external hard drive! Whew! First of all a view of the fall leaves, above...it is actually officially winter here, and that is about all the fall colors you will get to see...an occasional Japanese maple or two... the wattle was looking very pretty when I went to church this morning.... some new gum leaves I couldn't resist photographing.... bougainvillea.... and the pretty poinsettias next door...it is winter here now, so they are flowering now, which means they are nowhere to be seen at Chris...
