Here are a few more photos taken on our latest trip out to the botanical gardens last weekend. I was surprised how few flowers were out, and just how many had sustained rain-damage. It was a sad, sorry sight, but still, I managed to snap some shots of what colourful flowers were out.
And finally …
Another glorious day out there, today. A hot, balmy 29 (34 with the humidity factored in) with crystal azure blue skies and no breeze. Perfect for taking photos, she says.
Silent somnolent seagulls float in an azure blue sky,
A single lazy cloud hangs above a verdent canopy of lush green treetops,
The quiet only broken by the breeze rustling leaves to remind me
I’m alive.
I love these strawflowers not only for their vibrant, bright colour, but because when you dry them out, they all but last forever.
A little Saturday pick-me-up. Saw this gorgeous pink petaled and purple-centred lily (hemerocallis) on my walk out.
Today sees us enjoying a soft balmy breeze with a hint of humidity. The sky is a vivid eye-watering azure and the sun resplendant above. It’s the kind of day you want to sit in the shade, look up at that blue, and let your mind wander.
It’s a day to simply watch life unfold as time intended, slowly.
