The camera I was using in Australia was a Panasonic Lumix DMC-FX01 but I've since switched to a Sony DSC-H3, which I like much more. Thanks for your kind words, Lynn.

I recognize a few of these from florida and thought you might want to know names. The first is a bottle brush, the fifth looks like perhaps bird of paradise and the last is a canna lily. It has been in the 90's Fahrenheit here and we've been wishing for some rain. It's going to be a hot dry summer I think. lovely photos.

It has been in the 90’s Fahrenheit here and we’ve been wishing for some rain. It’s going to be a hot dry summer I think.

We've had similar weather in Britain, last week was hot and sunny but this week has been cooler and cloudier. Thanks Cathy, just editing them made me miss Australia, it was such an incredible place.

I always think that Portland and Bristol sound quite similar, West Coast friends who've visited us often see a resemblance. I’m glad you liked them, Sister Diane.

Beautiful photography, makes me feel like I was there. And Portland has been rainy the last couple of days, but it was melting hot just before that. I love when spring can't make up it's mind. mmmmmmm, those are not just warm colors, they are sizzling — I can feel the heat coming off the screen!
