Pluck not the wayside flower;
It is the traveler's dower.

Hidee Hodee Chris!

Thanks, the display the Bottle Brush was fantastic when we were there with John and Margaret.

John said today they went back over the weekend and only 40% were in bloom.

This one turned out really well Pat! My shot had wind movement drama attached to it!
The gardens are still beautiful, but the flowers are in short supply! #8562503

Wow, Pat and Graham - this is just a fabulous grevillea capture!! The details show up SO well against the dark background...and the colours, light, textures and diagonal composition all are exceptional, too!! :o) Really lovely work...considering, as John mentioned, the wind that was around at the time!! ;o) #8563894
