Red


My little maple in the front yard is getting his new leaves.


The bright colour is incredible.


They will change to green, before they turn autumnal red next year.


Absolutely gorgeous, don't you agree?
Well, I'm a bit unimpressed as over the weekend I came down with a horrible head cold. Blocked ears, scratchy throat, claggy nose, headache, boy oh boy it's fun! Feeling a little brighter today. Thank goodness for aloe vera tissues is all I can say :)
Take care friends

  6. Gosh those photos are lovely the way the leaves contrast with that bright blue sky. Sorry to hear you're not well, nothing worse than that feeling of something settling in. Plenty of tea and lots of rest for you miss!! x

  8. What gorgeous photos. I love the maple for its beautiful leaves and we have a Japanese Maple (already green) and a Canadian Maple which is just budding in our back yard. I love watching them change. Hope you are feeling a lot better soon. Gx
