A delightful beach day today as it was a public holiday here. Blue skies, sunshine, warm weather …..
…..And the essentials for a visit to the beach (Tasmania October 2021). Face masks are mandatory outside of our homes. So yes, people were walking on the beach wearing one. Hopeful this restriction will stop tomorrow (fingers crossed).
I’m linking this post to Becky’s October Squares for the theme “perspectives” and “blue”.

Our native Tasmanian blue gum trees have been beautiful this spring, with their white flowers and blue capsules. I’ve enjoyed taking some macro photos of the twigs I have in a vase.
I’m joining Becky’s October Squares for the themes of trees and flowers.

Here in Hobart, we have to wear face masks for the first time.
We’ve been in a snap 3 day lockdown over the weekend. Tasmanian has been covid free since June last year, with no cases in the community.
Recent risk of transmission from a positive case in hotel quarantine resulted in this lockdown. As there have been no new cases, restrictions eased this evening. Except for mask wearing.
The weekend “stay at home” order allowed exercise within 5 km of home. I’m fortunate that this coastal path is just 200 steps from our front door.
Do you wear a face mask when you leave your home?

Ross is a small town established in 1824 as a garrison town, home to several regiments of the British Army for thirty years, when Tasmania was a convict settlement.
Today it is a delightful town, known for this beautiful stone bridge, sandstone heritage buildings and wide streets.
The first photo is my contribution to Becky’s October Squares theme of blue.

Whilst walking on our local Howrah Beach recently, I noticed this star fish. There had been some significant erosion after strong high tides.
This is my contribution to HeyJude’s Life in Colour challenge, which is highlighting orange this month.

This time last year we visited Table Cape Tulip Farm in northern Tasmania. This fits perfectly for the past theme of “In the Pink” for October Squares hosted by https://beckybofwinchester.com

I took this pic on my lunchtime walk today.
As well as sharing some old photos, I’m also looking for new ones for Becky’s October Squares Challenge at https://beckybofwinchester.com. I see both circles and lines in this photo, which have been previous themes of the challenge.
