My last post this morning is for Nancy’s challenge at nancy merrill photography. This week we are asked to show red, either as a main colour or accent. This first photo is a red pohutakawa – I dare anyone to try and pronounce this. It is a native to New Zealand and is called a Kiwi Christmas Tree as it usually flowers around Christmas time and being a traditional colour for that time.
My second photo is of a red sunset. We do have the most glorious technicolour sunrises and sunsets and this one was particularly red.
For this challenge check out

PS – I must look at the movie The Sixth Sense again.
Thanks for visiting.




I just love the pohutakawa ! And yes I can pronounce it too! My son lives in NZ and I have visited a few times before!

Beautiful photos! Thanks for joining the challenge! I’ll have to ask my brother about pronouncing the Kiwi Christmas tree; he lived in New Zealand for a couple of years. 🙂

Such gorgeous reds Raewyn! The flowers on that Kiwi Christmas tree looks a lot like the ones we have here but we call them ‘Bottlebrush” or ‘Callistemon’. The bees love the flowers. 😀
What a gorgeous sunset! Nature is a great painter for sure and you’ve captured it so well! Thanks for sharing. 😀 *hugs*
