Purple

Published on by bushboy

The word prompt from Debbie at Travel with Intent: Purple

Check out Debbies Purple – click on the above link – It is stunning and I was thinking what do I have that’s purple to be able to contribute to this photo challenge. There is no way I can do wonderful lights like Debbies post. But I do live in a city which just had it’s Jacaranda Festival and has Jacaranda trees. But I wanted more so it’s floral all the way.

Here’s my bit of Purple
Better start with a Jacaranda tree

  7. You excelled in the purples, Brian. I adore jacaranda so I’m glad you had some, but I can also always rely on you to bring me things I’ve never seen before – i love the fringed lily and the unknown one
