    We call that tree a Mimosa. The blossoms are very dainty. Lovely shot.

    Beautiful photo. I agree with several others, that appears to be what we call Southern Mimosa. Your photography is awesome.

    Acacias made me nostalgic because Africa, my favourite continent, comes immediately to my mind, but I don't know if I ever saw this species and it's simply gorgeous! Wonderful shot.

Welcome to my photography blog, where I share the world as seen through my lens. All commenter's will receive a visit back from me but no longer individual replies unless you have a question, which I will respond to here. Your praise and kind words are always appreciated but to keep saying thankyou to you all individually, in an original way is not easy. So I am saying it here instead, a massive thankyou from my heart for all the wonderful support, your comments are a great encouragement to me.
