The end of the pohutukawa season?

This pohutukawa has gold sparkles all through the flowers, even on a cloudy day

Aaaaaah : ) Beauty.
And most impressed with Wellington Central Oriental Bay Pohutukawa - who knew they could be so restrained?
-
Not red, but rugged.

Coromandel pohutukawa seemed especially vivid this year. So much so, that I took a specific photo of the redified beach.

Using the camera’s vivid setting.

Bush walk, Waiheke.

Meola Road. Pohutukawa blooms lie in drifts in the gutters; the confetti of yesterday’s parade.

More Meola.

Pohutukawa blooms lie in drifts in the gutters
Stamen down,
a brush with death
stay man, down
sprinkled with spray
Tawhaki’s blood clogs the gutter
running back to the sea…
...and let's not forget the Masons... -
Outside Parliament today. Gradations of colour in Molesworth Street.
-
Remaining Wellingtonians and their visitors were probably all at Oriental Bay today

Although a steady stream visited Old St Paul's.

Interesting that the metrosideros used to be a favoured street tree in San Francisco but it is now regarded as a pest as it is so disruptive of underground utilities.
-
I suspect that damage done by tree roots seeking water lies behind much drain repairing around Wellington and elsewhere.

It struck me the angles on our consecutive shots were uncannily in-sync. So I did a twiddly thing. Not sure it works, but it's Friday, I'm on holiday, and Photoshop was open.
Happy Newness!

From this morning's walk: Pohutukawa & spider silk.

The pohutakawa wall outside parliament is at its best when the politicians have gone

A couple from around the base of Mt Aubrey, in Whangarei Heads (across the water from Marsden Point).
