spring has just started here and summer is still months away :-)
But summer for me is
- long bright days
- more time left after the office :)
- evening/late night walk on the beach
- dip in the sea :)
- swimming lessons
- watermelons and home made kulfis
Awesome pics as ever arch. Love the pressed flowers and the book shots. Amazing blog header too.
Lovely photos. I love how perfectly you have pressed the bougainvilleas!
My summer moments also include afternoon siestas, chiks on the windows letting in filtered light, cool drinks in the evening and lovely mulmul clothes in pretty colors.
I love how the light falls on the plate...a beautiful plate.
I wish I could capture the beauty of summer and all of its moments like you do. Makes me stop to think and take in the beauty around me... I am such a lost cause
Love the bougainvillea pic. Reminded me of an old poem I read (I can't remember where but it was published in an Indian journal in the 80s).
Tattered bells of scentless glory
mauve and magenta rooted
gay as gypsy rags
as abandoned as a circus
as gregarious as a crowd.
