Yes, it is still fall here, where the seasons change very slowly, not like in northern Michigan.
I took this picture in front of the Police Station just a few days ago.
Between then and now, 5/20/25, I have taken some shots from around our village, mostly of flowers. Take a look.
What I'd like you to notice in this next picture, is the hanging planter on the left.
I don't know who is responsible for this creation, but it's even nice in person than it appears in this photo.
I'm in the Fernery here, and therefore, mostly in deep shadows. One ray of light has been moving across the area and now illuminates this spot.
I've shown this before, but I like it, and it's slightly bigger than it was just after we moved into the village and I discovered it in our African Garden area. It's got the Fibonacci spiral-look going on.
I don't know what these are called, but they have such an interesting color. They appear almost black when direct sun is not on them, as it is now. Flower and shadow are then not too dissimilar.
That's it for today. See you again soon. -djf
Oooooh! I love these! and they mean even more since I saw some of them in person like the artistic succulent creation on the wall bordering the gardens and the lovely red flowers in the African garden! Those yellow orchids remind me of the lady slippers that grew up north in the U.P. Those blue flowers bursting out of the pink sheath are just wonderful!
ReplyDeleteThanks so much for sharing!
Glad you enjoyed them, Dianne.
DeleteThese fall pictures are beautiful. It's always so weird to see the opposite season in the pictures but I love it. In winter in Minnesota, I always loved seeing the summer pictures in New Zealand. It helped me through many Minnesota winters. McKenzie
