20101008_11060 Late Afternoon Scents (Fri 08 Oct)

Sydney NSW

A day full of meetings, originally scheduled to continue on until 6:30 this evening, made me suspect that yet another day would pass without a PAD shot.

However on my way home I was passing through a park when I noticed that a row of trees along one of the walls had started to bloom again. I didn't notice this by looking at them, though. I have no idea what they are (yet again, meaning that I really have to visit the Botanical Gardens at some point and get some reference books), but the scent is both extremely strong and pleasant. When they're in bloom, you know it even though they're a good 50 metres from the path.

I thought that in the circumstances a shot that "concentrated" on the flowers, lit by the late afternoon / early evening light, was apt.
