Trumpet vine

Trumpet vine
A street near me. (Algete street scene 1)

These dramatic flowers are fairly common here. They look especially good against a granite wall and with a view to the distant Guadarrama mountains. A blue sky helps too!
Also everything is as was! No editing at all, no cropping, no enhancements whatsoever.
The light yesterday was so pure that I could have read the small print off a can of coke (if I had been so inclined) without my reading glasses!
Sight and sound:
www.youtube.com/watch?v=1NR-hmFrR20 - by the late great Tim Buckley. Simply because it's a summery kind of song and with summer on the way out soon, I get a bit of a sadness creeping in. This song helps cheer me up. By the way, younger members might recognise the name of his talented son; Jeff Buckley. Sadly, both died young and both by drowning.
Perhaps best on full screen.

Thank you, Gillian!
Tim Buckly was big in France in the 70s - which is where I got to know him. But no-one in England had heard of him. Those schoolmates of mine to whom I played Greetings from L. A. were immediately impressed but still ... Jeff was always the more popular of the two at least in England.
Like you say, I too like both!

This is a very common flower in Turkey, especially around where my daughter lives - also the bougainvillea, so most walls are a riot of colour. This is so beautiful too.

Andy Rodker club has replied to Jenny McIntyre club
Thank yhou, Jenny!
We do get bougainvillea here in Spain too of course but it's not so common here - more on the coast I think!
The trumpet vine does grow in England, at least I recall seeing one healthy specimen on my walk to school (it would have been the second week in September as it wouldn't have been flowering before schools broke up in the third week of July ... or maybe it did flower earlier in the summer of 76!) But I think it struggles in most years.

Yes, the colour of these trumpet vines is amazing. I've also seen yellow ones, but they're that much more rare,

Beautiful light and crackin' colour. A brilliant one by Tim Buckley. I really must fish out the 'Anthology Collection' by Tim and give it a listen!!

Andy Rodker club has replied to Roger Bennion club
I only know his 'Greetings from LA' which I've been familiar with more or less since it came out. I don't know his other stuff so maybe I should look into the 'Anthology Collection' and hear for myself - thanks for the tip, Roger!

Schitterende opname van deze trumpet vine. Ook interessant zijn de ,,Bonen'' met de zaden.
In Nederland bloeien ze al de hele zomer, ook in mijn tuin, maar om bloemen uit de zaden te kweken is mij nog niet gelukt.
Hartelijke groeten en een prettig weekend, Frans.

Many thanks, Frans. I hope you are keeping well!
Probably they flower ok but need higher temperatures to ripen the seed pods, But I'm no expert!
