Nine multiple exposures (each 30 seconds apart) on a windy day. I used a polerizing filter to reduce each exposure time (1/4 second at f22). The clouds have moved and blurred over the four and a half minutes. Taken at UWA
Blossom’s_Photo_Gallery ============================================= / Snow Gum was Featured and chosen for Nature’s_Macro_Canvas Avatar of the Week – 5th July 2008. / Also Featured in: / Abstracts_from_Nature – 7th July 2008. / Textures_and_Materials – 9th July 2008. ============================================= / Snow Gum (Eucalyptus pauciflora) A medium-sized, often crooked tree has a short trunk to 1m diameter. It is low-branching with a spreading open crown. It sheds its bark in irregular patches in autumn, leaving a smooth white to yellow, olive-green or brown surface, occasionally with scribbly markings from insect lavae. Flowers appear in spring and early summer. They are white or cream.
From the high plains to the deserts – the Eucalyptus is botanically iconic to Australia. With over 700 species ranging from stunted shrubs in the arid regions to the tallest flowering plant on the planet, their diversity is as grand as their stature. Most species are not frost or cold tolerant (temps down to -5C) though there is one species that lives in the alps of the mainland affectionately known as the ’snow gum’. (Eucalyptus pauciflora ). Whilst three other cold tolerant species exist in the highlands of central Tasmania. Growing as woodlands or open woodlands from 1300m-1800m ASL in Tasmania,Victoria and New South Wales where they form the altitudinal limit of the tree line. The ’snow gum’ can become a gnarled old warrior as it eeks out an existance in poor soil with short growing seasons in harsh climates. Sometimes shedding bark revealing bright green,yellow or even orange-red under bark. It certainly makes for a brilliant dash of colour particularly in the snow. When in these alpine regions I often find it hard not to get ‘lost’ in their beauty and character and always find myself searching for those special individuals. Specimans with so much character that they speak for themselves.

Blossom’s_Photo_Gallery Floral Emblem of Tasmania Eucalyptus globulus is one of the most widely cultivated of Australia’s native trees. It can be found in parks and gardens in many parts of Australia and is well established overseas (eg. Algeria, Brazil, France, India, Spain and Portugal). Tasmania blue gum – E. globulus; found in eastern and south-eastern Tasmania, as well as in the islands of Bass Strait. It also occurs in southern Victoria; flowers occur singly in the leaf axils; rough bark usually retained at base of trunk. It is the floral emblem of Tasmania.

Blossom’s_Photo_Gallery Pink Flowering Gum Possibly an Eucalyptus leucoxylon rosea Tasmania, Australia. At a conservative estimate there are over 900 species and subspecies of eucalypts in Australia. They make up the very essence of ‘the bush’. Generally the mass of olive foliage overpowers the distinct, star-like flowers of eucalypts.

This white flowering Eucalypt caught my eye. It was actually in a carpark and our car was parked under it. I love how my interest in photography invokes me to notice these things that others walk on by. It allows me to see the beauty in the world around me.
Thanks to Lance for the title : )
