WEEKEND REFLECTIONS AND THE WEEKEND ROUNDUP

Time for Weekend Reflections and The Weekend Roundup and the letter is F and Fabulous. I hope you will agree that the bark is not only unusual but has FABULOUS patterns and colours on its bark.  The final image is of a FABULOUS group of birding FRIENDS  that I often meet on a Tuesday at the Cairns Botanic Garden.  I am using this for my STREET PHOTOGRAPHY.

CAIRNS BOTANIC GARDENS

These photographs were taken at Cairns Botanic Gardens when I went on the weekly Tuesday bird Walk. The plants are totally different from my plants in Northern Ireland as they are all tropical here in Cairns.  Today I get the keys of my new home, well that is if Cyclone Jasper permits it!  I did not think during my first 2 weeks in Australia I would be preparing for a Cyclone!! A new learning     curve and experience.
