TP 214: Grounded
This week's theme for Thematic Photographic is Grounded.
At this stage I just have two photos for this theme- though might add more later depending on what I get up to over the weekend!
The cherry blossom trees at the Esplanade in Palmy look magnificent at present- and this little treasure had fallen to the ground from one of the trees.
Down on the Bridle Track beside the Manawatu River, there are a few sections where you can walk down onto stony areas at the river's edge. These stones were on one such edge- largely they are greywacke which is predominant in this area.

Nice choices - the cherry flower is lovely, and I really like stones and rocks - I've taken a few pictures of rocks myself :)
ReplyDeleteI have a few discrete little rock collections around my house too :-)
ReplyDeleteLovely cherry flower! its a shame the blossom has to fall, but I suppose we'd get no cherries if it didn't! And nice rocks, too. what are the pink ones?
ReplyDeleteHi Gilly- I am afraid I don't know what the pink ones are- possibly something volcanic. I like looking at rocks, but don't know much about them!
DeleteThe pink rocks are sort of heart shaped! How cute!

They're just how the river tumbled them I guess- could have come from quite some distance in floods...
Deleteah! a flower and stones!! can't get more grounded than that!! too bad it's not raining on the stones...they look even more beautiful when wet, right??!!
ReplyDeletebeautiful shots!
Thanks Laura. I might look for a fungus on the ground when I go out walking in a few minutes as well... Maybe these rocks would look more interesting in the wet, but I probably wouldn't have been walking in this spot then!
DeleteYou are definitely not between a rock and a hard place with shots like these.
ReplyDeleteThanks Bob. Checked out your shots- love the grounded ruins- not something I would find on a walk here at home!
DeleteJust realized that the thematic photography blogger is Canadian! From London, Ontario.
ReplyDeleteMichèle
I think I had worked out he was Canadian Michèle, but never realised he was quite so close to where you are!
DeleteWell he is in the same province as I am. London is about 7 hours by car and according to google map, 115 hours by foot!
ReplyDeleteOK, so two weeks worth of eight hour walking days- not so close really!!!!
