A cherry blossom is a flower of many trees of genus Prunus. The most well-known species is the Japanese cherry, Prunus serrulata, which is commonly called sakura. They are widely distributed, especially in the temperate zone of the Northern Hemisphere including Japan, Taiwan, Korea, Mainland China, Nepal, India, Pakistan, Afghanistan, Iran, Myanmar, Thailand and West Siberia. Along with the chrysanthemum, the cherry blossom is considered the national flower of Japan. Japan has a wide variety of cherry blossoms (sakura); well over 200 cultivars can be found there. All varieties of cherry blossom trees produce small, unpalatable fruit or edible cherries. Edible cherries generally come from cultivars of the related species Prunus avium and Prunus cerasus. 27407

The highlight of my recent visit to Lone Pine was my encounter with this little lady, named Jindi (short for Jindabyne where she was born). I was fortunate enough to meet her outside her enclosure while she was out for a walk. She was eagerly awaiting some chicken treats from her walker, which were generously given to her so I could take some close-up photos. The chicken treats are the reason for the look of longing on her gorgeous face, which was just at the right angle for the sun to catch those golden eyes. She is a beautiful three-year-old dingo with a placid, reserved personality…and made quite an impact….

A large area of the Monaro (almost 2,000 sq miles), from Cooma to Jindabyne, NSW, has been devastated by "dieback". Mostly affected are the manna gums.
No one knows for sure the primary cause with many opinions ranging from a past drought causing the trees to weaken and becoming more prone to eucalyptus weevil, lack of seasonal ground cover burning, soil fungus or the trees just naturally dying off at the edge of their range.

I always stop here to take a photo of the valley below. Last time I passed through this was a very different scene as the area was in severe drought. Good rains have transformed the landscape to green and quite a few crops growing in what should be a great spring and then summer harvest. Showery this morning. Always beautiful whether in drought or green.

Another from last years autumn roadtrip
There was a rather thick fog and the sun was trying to break through
I was so tempted to go through the gate to composition heaven
We got a load of great shots along the fenceline as the light changed as the thickness of the fog moved around
This inspires me to go chasing some more fog

Lake Jindabyne receives the flow from the Snowy River as well as its tributaries, the Thredbo River and Eucumbene River.
The Jindabyne pumping station pumps the water from the rivers into the Snowy-Murray tunnel where it flows west through Murray 1 and Murray 2 Power Stations before entering the Swampy Plains River and then the Murray River.
The flow of water into Lake Jindabyne is particularly strong during the spring months of October and November.

this image is totally fake - obviously - it is a composite of a milky way image I took late last year and an image I took of Lake Jindabyne in the new year. It is constantly raining here so no chance to take any astro or landscape images. I am keeping the cabin fever at bay by playing with the images I already have.
The skateboard park next to Lake Jindabyne. I thought the pretty blue looked good against the sky and approaching storm. Some illustrations and tags on the blue walls and one on the right read, “Be nice”, which I thought was pretty wise! Jindabyne Snowy Mountains NSW.
No matter how stubborn you are sometimes the train just ain’t going to arrive.
Spotted these two in the pouring rain of the high country heading to Jindabyne and that isn’t camera noise it’s rain
