The cooler, wet weather we have been having recently is turning the oranges from green to orange 🙂

What a stunningly gorgeous photo 🙂
It´s got even more orange in the past few days! Wont be long until it can be eaten 🙂
Beautiful. I love the shiny glowing not quite green, not quite orange hues 🙂
When I first saw the shiny orb on the screen, I thought it looked more like the rings around Saturn! 😉
Looks like it could hydrate a family of 4 : )
LOL – with the mount of oranges, lemons and limes we have on the trees this year, I´m sure you are right!
Oh, lucky you! Fresh oranges. (It seems counter-intuitive that the fruit would ripen in the winter…)
No – it´s the perfect time to give you a boost of summertime in the form of a glass of vitamin C – just when you need it most! 🙂
Real oranges, how wonderful! So tomorrow there will be a new monthly challenge? I’ll try to do it this time!
Yes, it´s all lined up and scheduled for 7am Spanish time. Take note Gilly, you are in for a surprise, and I´m sure it wont have you feeling blue 😉
What came first the fruit orange or the colour orange?
Erm …. are you going to tell me, Paddy? 🙂
For some reason I’m now hankering for a fresh squeezed OJ (maybe with a slug of vodka) – it’s been a long day!!!!
How strange! 😉 Go and treat yourself – you deserve it!
Over in Portugal the oranges now have that orange tinge, but there is a field of really early oranges almost ready for picking, sadly for me they are not mine and are imprisoned by a high wire fence, so no scrumping.
AAwww that´s a shame.
The variety of orange I have photographed is called Navelina, and some of the fruit on the tree is more coloured than this one. They are on the points of being ready to eat. We also have varieties called Washington and Navelate which produce their orange oranges a bit later. That way from this time of year, we have plenty of oranges for the next few months 🙂
Gorgeous photo! 🙂
Speaking for those of us that live far outside citrus country, that’s a great shot!
Glad you liked it, John. Thanks for saying so 🙂
Mmmmm, that looks mighty delicious. 🙂
Well, it will be soon enough!
