OLYMPUS EM-1

Yes, spring is now well and truly in the air, as winter in Melbourne fades into memory... well maybe not today which is raining and cold. However, the morning I took this photograph, it was delightfully sunny with beautiful light and glorious blue skies, so I went for a stroll with purpose. Purpose? Yes, purpose! A few days prior when I was out with my partner we drove past a chrysanthemum-flowered variety of pink sakura cherry blossoms in full bloom. I had to go back and photograph it, and today seemed to be the perfect day to do so.

A cherry blossom, also known as a Japanese cherry or sakura, is a flower of trees in the genus Prunus or the Prunus subgenus Cerasus. This particular variety is a prunus "Asano" whish is a beautiful chrysanthemum-flowered breed of flowering cherry tree. It's abundant deep pink blossoms are small, but are packed with up to one hundred tiny narrow petals. Wild species of the cherry tree are widely distributed, mainly in the Northern Hemisphere. They are common in East Asia, especially in Japan. They generally refer to ornamental cherry trees, not cherry trees grown for their fruit. The cherry blossom is considered the national flower of Japan.

I apologize to my friends here for the lack of presence in this period.

The real world commits me, leaving little to creativity. Fortunately, I have things "in stock" when I had a lot of it.

I wish everyone a good week : )

Of course I considered more tasteless, juvenile, and hilarious titles for this one.

Calliandra emarginata (Pink Powder Puff)

Genus name comes from the Greek words kalli- meaning beautiful and aner or andros meaning male, hence a stamen in reference to the flower's many stamens.

Calliandra emarginata is always covered with beautiful and dainty powder-puff flowers. The color is deep pink, almost red, and it seems to depend on the amount of light the plant is getting.

Calliandra emarginata originates from the region of southern Mexico, Panama and Bolivia.
