As summer slides away I thought I'd share another summer picture, try to stretch out the warmth! I love these flowers and they seem to have followed me this summer, I've seen them in lots of places. To me they look like dancing fairies, although I understand they are actually "Whirling Butterflies" which I think is just as lovely.
As summer is fading I thought I'd play catch up and share some more memories of long warm sunny days. I hope everyone feels that despite all the bad things about 2020 there have been some pretty special moments too. Here's a collection of sunny pink poppy pictures to brighten your day..
One of the surprises of this summer has been how many woodland ponds there are locally and how many have beautiful waterlilies growing in them. I find myself wondering whether they are entirely wild or were they planted there? I associate waterlilies with formal gardens in stately homes and botanical gardens, I never knew I could find them in our local woods!!!! A really beautiful surprise.
I love walking in these woods, the trees just reach to the sky. I don't do multi-exposures very often but they do seem to capture the many rows of regular trees as you walk by so well.
The colours are definitely on the turn, there's a hint of gold in the ferns. It's been a difficult year but there's been some amazing summer moments, let's see what autumn brings.
