Dappled Sun

Dappled afternoon sunlight falls on the Wattle Woods. Some of the tree trunks in the Wattle Woods are on desperate leans. This is the view looking from the garden bench down towards the Pump House gum trees.

Below is an early photograph, taken in the year 1998. The leaning Wattle tree was a little more upright then.

The ground underneath these Wattles is beautifully filled with flowering Honesty in Spring. The beauty fades with their flowers, and by mid-summer it's a dry dusty mess.

And maybe one day soon, by the laws of Physics, the leaning Wattle will pass the point of no return...
