More red 20190204

We started cutting the rosella today.  Lots and lots more red!  I took what I think is a much better picture to show this but unfortunately it was slightly out of focus.  I will try again tomorrow first thing in the morning when the light is good and there is no wind.

With all the upset I have not been sleeping well but this afternoon I feel I managed to catch up a bit.

Red 20190203

There is so much red around at the moment in different places in Buddha Garden.   I felt very drawn to this hibiscus. 

Despite the situation and feeling emotionally quite drained I managed to finish the weekly video and take some pictures.

Meeting 20190202

The Buddha Garden team got together this afternoon and managed to come to a place where we are still talking.  Although there is still a lot more to work out

I feel more relaxed and less hurt.  I need to be gentle both with myself and others.

Feeling bleak 20190201

This picture expresses very well how I felt when a close colleague walked out of Buddha Garden today after a blazing row.  We have been working together for 14 years.

Contemplating 20190131

It was extremely misty today – maybe the last misty morning of this cool season.  We will have to see.

I got this picture quite by accident as I walked around the garden in the mist.  Rajan contemplating the garden where we are planting vegetables together with bananas and papayas.

Remembering 20190130

Remembering Peter’s birthday today and how we always used to celebrate it together.

I love this photo, another one from Sunday, which reminds me of an impressionist’s painting.

Waiting to hatch 20190129

Yet another picture from the series I took on Sunday.  I love these stones looking as if they are waiting to hatch into something else.  Or maybe just grow bigger.  Being stones they will sit there for as long as it takes to do this!
