Isithombe: I-oki ebomvu yaseNyakatho ekwindla

Lesi sithombe sokwakheka kwezwe esimangalisayo sibuswa ngokuphelele ubukhona obumangalisayo, obunjengomlilo besihlahla esisodwa, esivuthiwe, cishe i-Northern Red Oak (Quercus rubra), esithwetshulwe esiqongweni senguquko yaso yasekwindla. Lesi sihlahla simi sinegunya eliqhoshayo enkabeni yepaki evulekile, evulekile, umqhele waso omkhulu, oyindilinga ukuqhuma kwamahlamvu abomvu ngokunsomi acwebile, afuna ukunakwa ngokuphelele.

Ukuqina kombala obomvu kuyamangalisa, okubomvu okwegazi okucishe kube okukhanyayo okwenza wonke umbhede ubonakale ucwebezela ngaphakathi. Amaqabunga aminyene, enza inqwaba yombala oqinile, ofanayo ocishe ube namandla ngokudlidliza kwawo. Lo mbala oshubile awusicaba; kunalokho, ukuhluka okuncane ekungeneni kokukhanya kanye nokwendlaleka kwamagatsha kuvumela umehluko ocashile we-hue, kusukela ekukhanyeni, okubomvu kwe-incandescent emaphethelweni omqhele kuya ku-burgundy ejulile, efudumele emthunzini wangaphakathi, enezela ikhwalithi ecebile, enobukhulu emaqabunga. Isakhiwo salesi sihlahla siyalingana futhi siyindilinga, amagatsha aso amakhulu asabalele ububanzi naphezulu, asekela isisindo esikhulu somqhele omibalabala.

Isiqu siwugqinsi, siqinile, futhi siqondile, insika emnyama, eqinile ebeka umbukwane ocwebezelayo ngenhla. Ubukhona bayo buqinile futhi buhlala njalo, umehluko wakudala ebuhleni be-ephemeral bamaqabunga ekwindla. Ukushintsha ukusuka esiqwini ukuya ku-canopy kubushelelezi, namagatsha esikafula esindayo aphakamayo abese egoqa ngaphandle, anikeze isakhiwo esibonakalayo ngaphansi kohlu olucwazimulayo lombala. Phansi kwesiqu, umbhede ococekile, oyindilinga we-mulch ensundu ngokumnyama udala umngcele ochaziwe, ushintshela otshanini obuzungezile obuluhlaza, obuyisimaragidu. Lo mugqa ocwebile ugcizelela ukubaluleka kwesihlahla okumaphakathi futhi ugqamisa ukunakekelwa okucophelela okwenziwa ekunakekeleni ipaki noma ingadi.

Utshani bunakekelwa ngendlela efanele, umkhathi obanzi, oshanelayo wohlaza ojulile onwebeka unqamule ngaphambili naphakathi nendawo, ohlinzeka ngokuhlukile okuhambisanayo okubalulekile kombhede obomvu ovuthayo. Ukudlidliza kotshani obuluhlaza kubalulekile, kuvimbela obomvu ukuthi bungabonakali endaweni yesehlakalo futhi buvumele ukuthi bugqame ngomphumela omkhulu. Indawo evulekile yotshani igcizelela ubukhulu kanye nokuhlukaniswa kwesihlahla esifakiwe, okusenza sibe indawo okugxilwe kuyo ngempela.

Ingemuva lesithombe lihlinzeka ngohlaka lombhalo kanye ne-chromatic yesihloko esiyinhloko, enikeza isifundo esithakazelisayo ekushintsheni kwesizini. Ukwelula endaweni ephakathi kuwumngcele oqhubekayo, onezingqimba wezinye izihlahla nezihlahla. Eziningi zalezi zihlahla zisawagcina amahlamvu azo aluhlaza ehlobo, ikakhulukazi kwesokunxele, okudala ukuhlangana okumangalisayo kohlaza okungapheli ngokumelene nokubomvu kwesikhashana, okumangalisayo. Kwesokudla nokujula ngemuva, ezinye izihlahla ezivuthulukayo zibonisa ukusikisela okuphuzi, igolide elithulisiwe, kanye nokunsundu oku-russet, okubonisa ukuthi zisesigabeni esihlukile soshintsho lwasekwindla. Lokhu kungemuva okuhlukahlukene kudala umuzwa omuhle wokujula nendawo, okuqinisekisa ukuthi isihlahla esimaphakathi siyisibonelo esivelele endaweni enkulu, ehlukahlukene yehlathi.

Ngenhla, isibhakabhaka siyingxube yamafu aluhlaza okwesibhakabhaka nokuthambile, ahlukanisiwe amhlophe. Lesi sibhakabhaka esinamafu ngokwengxenye sibalulekile ekukhanyeni, njengoba sihluza ilanga, sinqande izithunzi ezinokhahlo futhi sivumele wonke umbhede ugcwale ngokulinganayo ukukhanya. Lokhu kukhanya okusabalele kuqinisa ububomvu bamaqabunga, kuwenze "akhanye" ngempela ngokumelene nokupholile okuluhlaza okwesibhakabhaka nokumhlophe. Isimo sezulu siyamangalisa futhi sizolile, ukuthwebula okunamandla kwengqikithi yekwindla—inkathi yombala omangalisayo noshintsho—ne-Northern Red Oak ebabazekayo emi njengenkosi engenakuphikiswa yendawo yesigameko.
