Shadow Shot Sunday #69 Flamingo tree
Our dwarf Weeping Willow (Salix integra) 'Hakuro Nishki' (Flamingo Tree) is beautiful in all seasons. In the bright sunlight we briefly enjoyed today the shadows it cast were sharp. It's difficult to see the foliage which is green and cream and pink - it sounds rather garish but is actually very pretty.(Click on the photos to enlarge)
Thank you to Tracy at 'Hey Harriet' for introducing and hosting this entertaining meme.
The Weeping Willow tree sure casts some magical shadows. And you are right about how pretty it is. I clicked on the top pic and the colours are lovely!
I love the shadows cast by hour little tree. Beautiful.
ReplyDeleteThank you bobbie.
ReplyDeleteThe white wall is perfect for capturing the shadows.
ReplyDeleteThat's a very big name for such a little tree, but how pretty the shadows on the white wall are.
ReplyDeleteThank you Martha Z and Chris
