I've been trying to find a traditional 'Northern' hemisphere photo to post for Briggsy and others who requested in the comments of my last post. This is harder than it sounds in the middle of summer down here. I thought about going to town and photographing the shameless commercialism of the Boxing Day sales... but I wanted to get to the beach.
Instead I photographed something in traditional Christmas colours. However, but has nothing to do with the Northern hemishpere, because I don't want to promote hemispherism (thats my story and I'm sticking to it).
The Pohutukawa is New Zealands Christmas tree, although no-one cuts these native beauties down. Their flowers are the an amazing crimson red and arrive right at Christmas time. A self decorating Christmas tree, what more could you ask for?
