If there is anything constant or predictable about nature, it’s that it is spectacularly colourful. Every morning there is a sunrise to paint the dawn peachy tones of pink, and every evening there is a sunset that stains the sky all shades of salmon. Even if there is a build up of cloud in the wide open skies, rays of golden light peek through intermittently, illuminating the emerald leaves on summer trees. In winter, brilliant green is replaced by dusky purples and champagne beige, while tree trunks are crocodile skins of charcoal standing tall from the terracotta coloured soil. The bush is a celebration of colour, and the bush dwellers camouflage and contrast just as beautifully. When the artistic gift of our photographers combines with what is already provided in the wild world, we get the Week in Pictures: Colour By Nature!
