My entire house is yellow orange! As is my living room and bedroom and studio… all different hues. I have been so busy that I hadn’t noticed that everything is blooming.  The Royal Poinciana is the fullest I’ve ever seen it.  I’ll show more of it tomorrow!

      And the sun was so bright the colors don’t show up as bright as they really are. Also there seemed to be a haze..from fields burning off, I think.
      I hadn’t even noticed that any of these trees and bushes had bloomed again. They’d all been denuded by leaf cutter ants earlier… What a nice surprise to go out to get a shot for Cee’s Flower of the Day and to see this wild profusion.

          I bought some the other day and my PA complained as they are harder to peel than usual and he ended up with a lot of juice and messy segments. Good flavor, though.

      It is a replica, barb. I wouldn’t have an original hanging outside.. ha. It was made by a dr. in Chapala who does wonderful one-of-a-kind replicas. The people in his studio also do mass orders that I hope people don’t sell in the states for the real thing, but the pieces he himself makes are really special and when I see one, I always buy it. He now spends most of his time in Puebla and you can no longer walk right into his studio, although some of his work still makes it into a shop in Chapala. I miss being able to go right up and look in the kilns and to see the pieces in production. Not many people knew of the location of his studio which was on the edge of town and down a pretty steep dirt road, but I bought so many pieces they eventually sent me directly to his studio. I always took visitors there and they always went home with a few pieces.

        We have a couple of fine Pueblo potters who make replica antique mimbres style pottery here in NM (actually one recently moved to AZ). I have a dear little mountain goat figurine. They are very careful to explain they are reproductions not original, but they are made with the same clays and techniques.
