Even though it's officially winter, the sun was out this weekend so Hubby and I went for a drive. Despite the season, we did find some great color and beauty.
These photos were taken at Lake Mangamahoe.
Pukekura Park in New Plymouth is where these were taken. Most of the trees here in Taranaki are different kinds of pine (it grows extraordinarily fast here) so 'autumn' color is rather sparse. I have no explanation for the trees and bushes blossoming at this time of year!

Thanks for sharing your beautiful with us at OBW!!!!
Wow! Eye-popping orange!
This weather is crazy. I heard you were unusually warm this winter. Beautiful pictures.
A great way to summarize a nice day out... As reflections go, I like the first shot, with the very red flower, it has an interesting composition, with a lot of contrasted colors.
Hi Bettyl, thanks for sharing your beautiful photos with OBW....love the swans such graceful birds. Cheers Robyn
So interesting when you're saying that it is winter in your part of the world and the trees are blooming - once again!!! I saw the beautiful images that were taken at Lake Mangamahoe and, also, the picture of azaleas (from previous post) and I was so surprised about the colorful beauty... It must be so nice to experience a "cold season" like winter in actually summer days...
Really beautifull world...fantastic colours... Lovely photos
Love love love the black swans!
