Flame of the Forest (2)

It was a bit silly of me trying to walk under the sun for some exercise today when the temperature was hoovering around 33 degrees Celsius.771b2c78-ea60-481d-ab34-4ff0a3cd03b8

My walk was interrupted several times when I encountered these trees in blossom.965126fa-aee3-48b2-a884-39ed09f271a5

I can’t help taking out my camera to photograph these Flame of the Forest trees as they are the best I saw in years.

These trees were planted near to the Tai Po town area.

With a smart phone in hand and the fierce sun from above, I took photo of these trees.53a14dc4-b3c4-4083-befe-0d20004db35d

The climate change has brought a lot of rain here in the last couple of months. This, I surmise, is the reason for all these blossoms.2d345aab-9b55-4865-b0b1-97669fa35477

A bright side of climate change?

Rundale Palace, Latvia (0)

If you are interested in the Lion and the architecture around it, you may be interested in my next series on Rundale Palace.

There are several lion statutes on top of the building and columns of this palace in Latvia.DSC_0206

This lion looks a bit intimidating but at the same time interesting.

The real treasures are inside the palace!
