I think the image was taken five years ago at a Parramasala Festival at Parramatta Park.
I remember eating good food, getting henna painted on my hands and generally having a lovely time under that blue Australian sky.
Parramasala is an annual festival of all things South Asian. Like most things, it had to be cancelled last year due to COVID-19.

It’s as Aussie as you can get. Here are its flowers https://nomadonline.blog/2018/01/04/growth/ and this is what the tree looks like https://nomadonline.blog/2019/09/21/self-generating-carbon-sucking-planet-saver/

Wow, those flowers are beautiful. They remind me of sea urchins. What a beneficial tree.
