Sometimes, life is like that.
I’m a retired administrator, pilot and instructor who loves photography, especially landscape photography, something I can now do to my heart’s content!
We finally and thankfully received some rain to cool off our high temperatures, water all our plants and trees and provide a little drought relief.
Another benefit was this lovely rainbow. For a few minutes it was completely glorious before the overcast and rain really set in for the night.
Happy Sunday.
I enjoy doing most of our vegetable and fruit shopping at the Saturday Farmers’ Market.
We want to support our local farmers as much as possible and what can I say about the freshness and taste?
It’s fantastic and we often find produce that’s just not sold in grocery stores.
Happy Saturday.
Lilies in abundance …
their warm summer colour a very pretty sight …
to be enjoyed now …
before they’re gone until next year.
The day begins its close …
the evening deepens …
moisture laden clouds move in …
there will be rain for this parched region …
but not before a sky show.
Well, not really.
It’s actually a very large lake …
… that can appear quite golden – or orangey-golden – when the light of the sunset catches it from the right visual angle.
Happy Wednesday.
There are many simple and lovely summer things to enjoy …
… it’s that time of year …
… and is over much too fast.
The sun peeks around the trees …
… and through the bikes …
… on a very warm, glorious, late spring evening.
Happy summer solstice. I hope you enjoy this year’s longest day and also, Happy Father’s Day to all the dads.
With the solstice – and midsummer – fast approaching – the solstice is on Sunday – it’s more than appropriate to post pictures of some lovely bloomers today. 🌸
The lavender is coming into its own and it sure has a glorious scent.
These black lace elderberry flowers are very delicate and pretty.
Aren’t these hydrangeas gorgeous? Blooming perfectly in time for the solstice! This particular type will change colours a number of times throughout the summer and into late October providing months of beauty and reminders of sunnier days.
Happy Friday; happy weekend.
… the sun says good night …
… peace and health be with you.
… sailor’s delight.
I hope you have a delightful Monday.
