The power of colour

It started off innocently enough. I was preparing the ground for Tara ..when she finally joins us and I can, joy of joys, take her for lovely walks in the creek by our house. This is what I found which I think is truly staggering - the audacity of autumnal nature in its full technicolour glory.

When I noticed this fruit I had to go up close to check whether it was real. And this is all at the end of our road. Identifications now needed but enjoy their splendour.
