    This little splash of pink really stood out on such a gloomy day as today.

    Hey, we could do with that today too…. grey flat day.

    what a lovely window capture!
    And how you say ... ar - um ... lilies! :-)

    We had a good show-er of thunderstorm yesterday afternoon.
    White-faced heron backon the riverbank, took it stoically for a time, before taking the flight option after a particularly close intense thunder-clap.

    A few weeks before the walnut really recognises Spring, it is still a see-through window to the rain.

    But through the kitchen window, the grape vine is in transition from budding to leafing,

    while retaining many of last season's tendrils thwarted in their quest for something solid to hang on to.

    Beaut evening

    Hmmm… we seem to be in a very odd time of year when Beijing and Auckland weather are pretty much the same. But I seemed to capture it better reflected in a shop window downstairs…

    ...than directly through my brother in law's window. Fuzziness in that image is due to dirty windows, not my cellphone, though I should say it's not often you see those mountains that clearly from that distance.

    Guess I should add, for pedantry's sake, that those two photos were taken just over the border in Yanjiao in Hebei Province, but I assure you the weather was identical down here too. When we got to the top of the Yuantong Bridge we could see both the Western Hills and, much further away, the Jundushan to the north.

    The gardens are fun too.

    Last one is my lens, baby. ;-)

    More wisteria, in our front garden, from today. It always look so unpromising in winter, as I prune away die-back and weta-infested leaders. Then it bursts in flower in spring like this, with a most amazingly heady scent.
