flora sunrise


Playing with flowers... it really is too hot for photo expeditions, so I'm shooting mostly indoors.

Summer is half gone. The schools will be back in session soon and autumn will follow. The seasons pass by; like watching sailboats from the shore, they glide past our vantage point. In summer the white hot sunlight fills the sails and the sound of children playing on the shore fills the air. The breeze is a welcome coolness on suntanned skin. As autumn approaches, the skies are less blue and passing storms disturb the calm surface of the sea. Boats head for the safety of the harbors and bays, the beach is nearly abandoned and we begin our preparations for the onset of winter.

So... we are mid-way through the season. Last chance for vacations to sunny beaches, last chance for flip-flops and shorts, last chance for sunflowers.

Well said, my friend! You do have that poetic heart as it comes out in your writing and photography. Have a super week in your flip-flops.
