Pink Flannel Flower (Actinotus forsythii)
Pink Flannel flowers (Actinotus forsythii) in full bloom in the Blue Mountains, New South Wales, Australia. These flowers are extremely rare and can be seen on exposed rocky escarpments in this region and in scattered parts of eastern Australia, from the Blue Mountains to north-eastern Victoria. They are rare as they rely on rain fall after a bush fire for seed germination to occur and flowering usually occurs in late summer. During the summer of 2019-2020 in Australia fires ripped through the Blue Mountains World Heritage area damaging nearly 80% of the area. Twelve months on nature is rebounding and these flowers are part of the regeneration process

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the exquisite beauty of the Pink Flannel Flower (Actinotus forsythii) in full bloom against the stunning backdrop of the Blue Mountains, New South Wales, Australia. These delicate flowers are an incredibly rare sight, as they can only be found on exposed rocky escarpments in this region and scattered parts of eastern Australia. What makes these flowers even more extraordinary is their unique life cycle. They rely on rainfall following a bushfire to trigger seed germination, making them a symbol of resilience and rebirth. Typically blooming in late summer, their appearance signifies nature's ability to bounce back after adversity. The significance of this particular photograph goes beyond its aesthetic appeal. It captures a momentous event that took place during the summer of 2019-2020 when devastating fires ravaged through the Blue Mountains World Heritage area, causing extensive damage to nearly 80% of its land. However, just twelve months later, signs of hope emerge as nature begins its regenerative process. Janet K Scott skillfully immortalizes this scene with her lens, reminding us not only of the fragile beauty that exists within our natural world but also highlighting nature's remarkable ability to heal itself over time. This photo serves as a powerful testament to both the fragility and resilience found within our environment and invites viewers to appreciate and protect these precious ecosystems for generations to come.
