Plumeria Leaf

Posted on April 12, 2022 by Stupidity Hole

There is a frangipani tree where I live. Not completely certain this is the case, but due to all the rain we’ve had it has shed a lot of its leaves. However, new leaves are growing. This leaf is a … Continue reading →

Layered Branches

Posted on November 28, 2021 by Stupidity Hole

If you’ve been following Stupidity Hole for a while then it’s likely that you’re aware of my fondness of bare branches such as the ones seen below. These ones are bare due to fire. They look almost like river systems and, … Continue reading →

From Corner to Clouds

Posted on October 30, 2021 by Stupidity Hole

There might be a few ones of the same tree coming after this one. Not sure yet. Anyway, here is a tree as seen at a place that is considered a lookout spot. Not sure what I was going for … Continue reading →

Tree Against Sky

Posted on September 18, 2021 by Stupidity Hole

A tree(s) as seen at Balls Head Reserve. There’s a moodiness to this image. A sense of drama. Perhaps a bleakness, but not overly so as there are leaves visible. Certainly a sense of space. Also a sense of contrast … Continue reading →

More Salvia farinacea

Posted on June 19, 2021 by Stupidity Hole

At least, I think this is Salvia farinacea, though admittedly my thinking that is based off this photo. I feel as though in this photo the flowers feel like they’re reaching for something outside of the frame. Maybe they’re reaching … Continue reading →

Canna yet to Bloom

Posted on May 9, 2021 by Stupidity Hole

Here is a photo of a Canna yet to bloom. There’s something rather plain about it, and yet I can’t help but find myself interested in how it appears. Perhaps its the way the plant almost appears as though it … Continue reading →

Burned Bare

Posted on April 21, 2021 by Stupidity Hole

I can’t confirm this, but I feel as though this bit of vegetation was burned in the recent major bushfires we had that ended early last year. I feel as though they make for a stark contrast here. Behind them … Continue reading →

Erythrina crista-galli

Posted on March 19, 2021 by Stupidity Hole

It very much has been a long day and I was planning on doing some writing, but unfortunately (or fortunately, depending on how you view it) the need for rest currently supersedes everything else. Instead of writing, here’s what I … Continue reading →

Salvia farinacea

Posted on March 18, 2021 by Stupidity Hole

My understanding is that this is also known as mealycup sage. This photo was taken at The Royal Botanic Garden in Sydney. I was trying to capture the bee more than the plant, but I think I managed to do … Continue reading →

Cast Against the Sunset

Posted on December 12, 2020 by Stupidity Hole

Another sunset and some more vegetation in silhouette. I think it is a combination of the colour and the contrast between the sky and the flora that makes me like this scene. The resultant moodiness is something that I find … Continue reading →
