With many more about to burst out. It's unbelievable how many different shades of yellow will appear. Each species is slightly different in size, shape and colour.
@photohoot Hi Wendy. It was taken with the colour selection feature on my camera. The yellow against the bright blue was all just a bit too much! I liked this much more. :) Cheers Rob
@busylady Hi Judith - the wattle (I don't know which actual species!) is our national flower. There is actually a crazy, little ditty :
"Behold the wattle,
The symbol of our land.
You can put it in a bottle,
Or hold it in your hand!"
Cheers Rob
@taffy Hi Taffy. Thanks for your comment on this - it was taken with the "selective colour" setting on my camera - it removed the distracting blue sky nicely, and the yellows really are that vibrant. :)
Hi Dorothy, Casa, Haskar, Cliff and Carol. This tree is right outside our bedroom - and just amazingly yellow. The blue sky peeking through was a nuisance so the yellow "selective colour" setting worked well. In other attempts it's been a bit useless though! Thanks for your comments. Cheers Rob @illinilass@casablanca@haskar@clifford@carolmw
