Off today to help with cleaning up after the storm and getting on with chores that have to wait when I spend much of the time during the week at work. Today was a haircut. Same salon, new premises, $16 increase in cost. Gasp.
In the suburbs we continued to clean up, friends waited for the power to come on again. Tributes continued to come in from around the world for the young cricketer Phillip Hughes. Strange times.
A brief break at lunchtime and I was drawn to the backyard (as one often is in such times). The frangipani just keep powering on and today I caught them just in a state of unfurling, or not. Just close-ups with the fruit fone and a little play with cropping...

The raindrops added interest too.
