Best wishes for a happy New year!

Happy new year and very best wishes to all followers and visitors for a Happy safe and warm holidays!
I want to take this opportunity to thank you all for the support, the likes and comments since the opening of this account.
This photo was taken with a Nikon camera D5200 of a painting made this summer.

My apologies for having left my blog inactive of late but I’m trying to figure out how to post photos from my phone without having to go through all the hassle of reducing the pixels (through my computer) so as not to overload my blog space.

I truly enjoyed the contact built throughout the years with my fellow bloggers and hope there’s a way around this dilemma.

Any tips on this matter would be greatly appreciated.

Keep safe and warm!

Nature’s display of perfection

Can you guess?©copyright2014owpp

This time round I tried to pique your curiosity by posting first the close up & wonder if you have recognized what it is.
I received this arrangement & was fascinated by the shape of that one… see next picture to understand 😉 so I took a few close-ups in the hope that you’ll identify it & enlighten me with its name.
Enjoy the next ones too!

P.S http://bloomlisa.com/ suggested below in the comment section that it might be a Waratah which I Googled for images & searched for info in Wikipedia.
Here’s what they say…

Waratah (Telopea) is an endemic, Australian genus of five species of large shrubs or small trees, native to the southeastern parts of Australia (New South Wales, Victoria and Tasmania). The most well-known species in this genus is Telopea speciosissima, which has bright red flowers and is the NSW state emblem. The waratah is a member of the plant family Proteaceae, a family of flowering plants distributed in the Southern Hemisphere. The key diagnostic feature of Proteaceae is the inflorescence, which is often very large, brightly coloured and showy, consisting of many small flowers densely packed into a compact head or spike. Species of waratah boast such inflorescences ranging from 6–15 cm in diameter with a basal ring of coloured bracts. The leaves are spirally arranged, 10–20 cm long and 2–3 cm broad with entire or serrated margins. The name waratah comes from the Eora Aboriginal people, the original inhabitants of the Sydney area.

Thank you Lisa for the effort, it’s very much appreciated 🙂
