I love Welly. The last *3* times I’ve tried to go there, stuff has happened to stop me going. But I’m determined to break the jinx soon. :-)

Lilith ,your last post, 3.40am, tired , much ? ;)
Nah, slept great, was up briefly for a catfood emergency. :-)
Jos, I can only do these 3Ds on the iPad. For me I have to get pretty close.

Lovely shots, Jack. I particularly dig the cranes with Mt Vic and the Duck & Frog [perfect pub name]. And of course you had to take a night photo of the railway station. :-)

Oh yay, I can do these ones! Although the trees seem to bulge in the middle :-)

both lacebark & ribbonwood (tree) were used as plaiting/woven material…
I've seen some amazing woven lacebark. I can't imagine how difficult it must be to work with, being so delicate and fragile.

ribbonwoods
Not sure where these ones grow. What I think of as ribbonwoods are much smaller...skinny things with branches that grow almost straight up against the trunk.

the kotukutuku -tree fuchsia – is the only tree native that is deciduous
Some dramatic stands of these on the Otira side of Arthurs Pass. Lovely red trunks in the Winter.
Aren’t ribbonwoods deciduous too? I guess they’re more shrubs than trees.
PS will I be seeing you soon?

Kowhai trees sprinkled through the gorgeous bush by the Okura River
I think kowhais are prettiest in bush. Grown as specimen trees they often look straggly and lost. They need their green friends. :-)
