Firstly, I apologize to all who took the time to leave a comment on my last three posts, you know how much I love your feedback which made it all the more horrible that I deleted them while trying to get rid of spam! Ticked the wrong box didn't I, thankfully only the first 100 comments :) je suis désolé! Onwards.. passing Hyde Park yesterday the lure of the London Plane trees in spring was too strong to resist.. planted between 1897/1899 in avenues around the lakes they are fabulous in all seasons, especially providing much needed shade in the heat of summer, the park is looking especially lush after the rains. Hope you're having a good weekend, take care.. p.s. I have a 'proposal' for you tomorrow.. intrigued?
What a gorgeous place, Grace!! And I do love those trees!! Superb captures as always!! I would love to spend some time there!! Your pics are the next best thing to being there! Sorry for the computer problems you've had -- those can ruin the day, can't they!!! Yep, I'm intrigued!! Can't wait to see your next post!! Have a great new week!!!
ReplyDeleteLovely place! Arianna
ReplyDeleteNever any fun with spam. Love the green color here.
ReplyDeleteSo lush and green...paradise!
ReplyDeleteI have a spammer problem too. If only there were an online "pest control" to help us get rid of these pesky varmints!
Lovely setting to be propositioned by a young woman..
ReplyDeleteMind you, we know that means trouble!
My comments are set to hold comments on post older than 2 or three days and I catch and mark as 'spam' on any objectionables as they come in on the recent posts. I also had to forbid anonymous comments. . . . . . Can't WAIT to see what you will present tomorrow, G!

What lovely shades of green! Hope you get your spam troubles under control. :)
ReplyDeleteLove the green. It is very bright.
ReplyDeleteGreetings,

These are one of my favourite trees too, Grace! Even in winter their trunks look so wonderful.
ReplyDeleteThese are gorgeous! Absolutely lovely shots.
ReplyDeleteOnce again, amazingly lush spring growth at precisely the same time as our trees are slowly drifting into autumn.
ReplyDeleteVery, very nice shots !!
ReplyDeleteTomás.
I am too lazy to check, but I often wonder if there is another kind of plane tree other than the London one. Is there another type of flag iris other than Dutch Flag Iris. They and elms are great street trees.
ReplyDeleteOh yes, lovely park and so green, for now. I am intrigued by the proposal. Does it involve sending you money?
ReplyDeleteBeautiful shots! Ooops on the computer problems!
ReplyDeleteYes, I agree, Hyde Park is looking amazing! We're indebted to the planners who make sure Perth was a park-green city (as much as it can be considering the dry climate) with Kings Park and Hyde Park, not mention the many others... lovely post.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful park. I like all of the beautiful trees.
ReplyDeleteSpring is looking GREAT in Perth!
ReplyDeleteVery beautiful!
ReplyDeleteI particularly like the second photo - the composition, the balance of tomes and colors are perfect.
ReplyDeleteThat first picture, particularly, inspired me... see my blog: francesmacaulayforde.wordpress.com
ReplyDeleteI was hoping for a poem Sue..
DeleteI wrote 2 Haikus. To see their relevance, one needs to read my blog too!
Delete1. Spring
Newness of things:
the greenness – the blueness – the
colours of Spring.
2. Swans
Like ballerinas,
swans float above their
watery stage.
I feel like saying "Oh to be in England now that spring is here'.
ReplyDeleteLondon, Hyde Park, for a moment I thought you had come over to Europe. The English have put their marks on Australia.
ReplyDeleteWhat lovely and lyrical photos.
ReplyDeleteHow beautiful that fresh green!
ReplyDeleteI agree with biebkriebels - could be right here, Grace!
ReplyDeleteWhat a calming series of lovely green trees. And yes I am intrigued Grace!
ReplyDeleteoh, I want to be seated on that bench... drinking in the view.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful setting. Love all the greenery and the reflections. I often delete when I should publish. . it happens!
ReplyDeleteI always wanted a park like this! I loved it!
