While enjoying the warmth of summer, I've had some moments of panic in realizing how fast it's going - especially in comparison to the length of last winter. (Is anyone still a little scarred by last winter)? Anyway, I'm pushing this to the back of my mind and thinking of how this summer has been marked by chasing after flowers with my camera. The orange butterfly weed and the yellow coneflowers have really stood apart, as well as some neighborhood sunflowers. I've never had much luck growing things myself, but these sunflowers are making me want to plant some of my own next year.

Thank you, Helena. <3
DeleteI had a super mild winter so I'm looking forward to another one of them but if I was you I'd still be pretty scarred from it. I love talking photos of flowers, it's easy to spend the time getting a lovely shot and finding more and more to snap photos of.
ReplyDeleteLovely photos!!
Oh, nice that you had a mild winter. Not so much here!
DeleteYes, I think I'd be happy spending all day in a field of flowers with my camera!
These flowers are gorgeous! We have really long summers here, but this summer has been incredibly mild and very rainy.

ReplyDeleteThanks, Rebekah - they've kind of been my summer uniform! :-)
DeleteHaha is it bad that I'm ready for summer to be over? I just love fall so much and I wait so long for it to be fall-like outside living in the south! I love these summery, gorgeous pictures though. You look adorable in your seersucker dress too.

DeleteNo, I hear you! I feel the same way about fall - but it always seems like such a short season. :-/ Anyway, here's hoping for lots of nice cool weather this fall. :-)
there is nothing, nothing like a fresh, vivid sunflower against a bright blue sky that speaks so loudly of summer to me. lovely.
