summertime

What is one to say about June, the time of perfect young summer, the fulfillment of the promise of the earlier months, and with as yet no sign to remind one that its fresh young beauty will ever fade.

All following shots were taken on a perfect summer evening in my father's garden.

  1. I was working on a cherry pict (to prepare a "red" series !) when I saw yours on Flickr ! ;-) I came back on Flickr tonight after a long absence.
    But I follow your blog since I discovered it in April. Great idea (the blog) ! and great garden pictures series ! The perfect atmosphere is a temptation to "farniente", just savor beauty !
