Taking in the shade at Sandymount, summer in Dublin 2022.
Like Littlewoods to Very, O2 became Three & now route 1 becomes C1, even the seasons change.
So many shades of gold
Autumn
Another miracle we take for granted
Another expression of the artist's vision
The blending of the autumn hues
with the setting sun
Warm
Comforting
Perfect
Thank you for autumn, Lord
This is the time to leave your home and take a short trip to an outdoor nature place like this, or just do it in your imagination…right now.
Our NZ Pohutukawa Tree (Metrosideros excelsa) is at least 150 years old and grows at the bottom of our driveway. The width of the trunk matches my height of 164 cm (5ft 4in). New Zealand's oldest known Pohutukawa grows at the furthermost northern tip of NZ at Cape Reinga and is said to be at least 800 years old.
Pohutukawa (pronounced Po hoo too car wa) have the ability to sprout root systems as and where needed. Their adventitious roots form out of trunks and branches and are able to grow in air over surfaces as they search for crevices, pockets of soil and moisture. They can be seen growing strongly, both in lush green forests and along the craggy rock faces of windy sea edge cliffs.
