Friday flower - a dramatic backdrop


Something different for this Friday.


I took these images the other night during the most beautiful sunset.


There's those iceberg roses again. They pop up everywhere in this blog.


I think the sunset was enhanced due to the Chilean volcanic ash that's been floating over Tasmania during the last few days.


Out across the street with silhouettes of some lovely Federation chimneys. How I wish our house still had its chimneys. We guess there was at least 3. What a pity they were removed.
Anyway, happy Friday friends. I hope it's a nice one for you all.
I am really looking forward to this evening though, we are off to see Cirque de Soleil's Saltimbanco! I've never seen it before and have been waiting since last October when I was lucky to receive tickets for my birthday from Lyn. Yippee!
PS. I will post pics of my Washi tape creations in the next post. I haven't had enough light to take photos yet.

  7. I love the last image best. Something lovely about the rooftops and chimneys.
    I saw Allegria years ago, and I must say I was blown away by the whole performance. Nothing like seeing "real" people perform, in any medium.

    I smiled at your comment re: Lyndon and abstract art - I emailed an abstract landscape to Paul yesterday and his remark was 'I feel like I'm looking at it drunk' :)
