RE: Original Photography. You See ~ I See. Color Challenge. Tuesday Orange. Morning Dew on the Banksias at the Roseville Lake.
Great photos. I have never seen these before, they look like bottle brushes. Quite beautiful to look at.
Great post too.
Thanks so much @katdvine. Really pleased you like the post. Feel free to write your own 'You See ~ I See' post if it appeals to you. 🐝
Banksia flowers are similar in some ways to the Bottlebrush and even here in Oz, people can confuse them. Banksias vary in height and are often quite large ~ These ones were about 25-30 cms tall. Much larger than the Bottlebrush. 🐝
They are also more 'solid' than the Bottlebrush ~ Lovely to enfold them in your hand and gently press. They're quite resilient and their texture feels wonderful. Bottlebrushes are a lot softer. 🐝
