Tiny Pleasures #361: Post-Prandial Stroll
Ah, the long summer evenings are a treat. What better way to enjoy the sky turning a deep shade of blue than to wander the streets after dinner?
Tiny Pleasures #346: Gumnuts
I like gumnuts. I like their shape and colours and their little lids holding all the seeds in. And in a very Australian thumbs up to logic, the biggest nuts are found on the smallest trees.
Tiny Pleasures #345: Tree Shadows
