That is a beautiful colour and paint effect. How clever they are.

The dapple-effect paintwork was in fact “merely” shadows from overhanging Rain Tree foliage. You can see the same phenomenon on the ochre walls of another faux residence, at the far end of the road.

So, it had me fooled! Clever Rain tree.

A couple of days back, I double-checked that the stippling effect was in fact leaf-shadow. Fortunately, I my first impression had been correct!

It’s not yet daylight here at 7 AM this time of year … when does dawn arrive there?
November 8, 2012 at 7:13 am
Living well into the tropics, the times of sunrise and sunset vary throughout the year by less than half an hour.
The first hints of dawn start at around quarter to six while it is bright enough to manage without electric lighting by six-thirty.
Dusk begins twelve hours later, then total darkness descends within forty-five minutes.
