Summer’s last hurrah! As they become increasingly scarce, how the transient sight of colourful, late summer flowers touches our souls, whereas earlier in the season they were lost amongst midsummer’s abundance.

The drought last summer claimed my favourite, pink Michaelmas daisy, but up through the cracks in the paving, came this fine, new one, which must have grown from a seed which fell. Nature is so resilient!

‘Season of mists and mellow fruitfulness’ .. Hadlow, last Autumn. My car thermometer read a bone-chilling minus 6 degrees C.

For I had never loved until,
You healed my heart,
And I was fulfilled,
When you became mine,
And I became yours;
My faithful, forever friend
With paws.

Regrets

Un aujourd'hui galvaudé
Un demain incertain
Un hier ressassé
Un moment de ma vie perdu.

How often do we choose to take the path leading into the unknown, to leave the familiar behind in exchange for pastures new;- A leap of faith where each step is overshadowed by uncertainty? Yet the reward for our courage can be a seismic shift towards fulfilment and enlightenment.

There’s just something irresistible about the intense, powdery blue of picea pungens ‘Edith’ as its new growth emerges in the month of May, and its modest ultimate size and rate of growth make it a great choice as a specimen tree.

No, this isn’t some little thistle! It’s massive and flowering 2.5m (8 ft) high, that’s well above your head, beneath silvery-green, deeply serrated leaves, which are silky to touch. Dramatic plant architecture at its very best: Meet The cardoon!

Thanks Christine. I realised I had a legendary, ‘career digger’ the day I came home from work to find Pluto my dog proudly wagging, covered in dirt, showing me a huge hole he’d spent all day digging - that was bigger than his body size!! OMG!!

Lovely colours

How sad but great portrait. I similarly accidentally immortalised my dog Pluto boy as the first YouTube canine goth rap star, when I wrote a song about his legendary hole digging, but sadly lost him shortly after. I won't post link as not trying to self-promote, but you can search Da Pluto Boy Rap.

Towering height, impossibly beautiful, paper-thin flowers in such a range of colours -even their seed pods have an extraordinary beauty. Let’s hear it for the humble #hollyhock!

Dziękuję. Lubię fotografię, głównie fotografię przyrodniczą, a także pisanie muzyki. Mój kanał YouTube ma wiele piosenek, które możesz polubić, niektóre są coverami, niektóre są własnymi piosenkami. Najlepsze życzenia, Melanie
