First Day of Autumn
Today is the first day of autumn so unfortunately, summer is officially over. It’s also a Monday though and because of that I hope these late summer scenes ease you through yet another weekly start.
A warm beach …
… a pretty tea rose …
… a transitioning hydrangea …
… and a sunny lake.
I hope your day goes well – happy autumn!
Grasses
Although in the northern hemisphere many of the flowers are beginning to fade, there are so many interesting grasses now coming into their own.
There is a multitude of them …
… in so many shapes and sizes …
… and colours, too …
… so varied and pretty …
… as they go to seed in all their frondy, wispy glory.
Happy Sunday.
Serenity
If everyone took a few moments to relax …
… in a tranquil garden …
… humanity would be a much better place.
Happy Saturday.
September 19’s Friday Fleurday
Today’s fleurday has a visitor.
I saw this lovely dragonfly – technically, a blue-eyed darner – resting on one of the impatiens flowers hanging above our deck. I was very happy to see it because we have had a huge crop of spiders this year and dragonflies love to invite them for lunch!
This one seemed to be drowsing in the warmth of the sun; it rested there for about an hour before flying away on those transparently beautiful, gossamer wings; they’re so delicate looking but extremely strong.
I love the impatiens flowers but I love even more the fact that the dragonfly stopped for a little rest in my deck garden.
Happy Friday.
Pretty Perspectives
September can be such a beautiful month and while we still haven’t cooled off very much, that autumnal atmosphere is somehow here and breathing gently into our days.
It’s a fantastic time to simply admire what nature has wrought.
Happy Thursday.
