here

Hot, muggy mornings are often relieved by the rains which usher in ever muggier afternoons. If we were less substantial beings, we might swim through the air along our streets as we travelled between the bubbled cold of buildings. We'd sink as we entered the threshold and rise again as we left. The crickets accompany us with their lament in the meanwhile; long, slow songs that buzz in our ears as we sit in the heat of the afternoon, our eyes closed in the pretense of sweaty sleep.


There is relief to be found in the bodies of water where we gather. Here we float in the profound blue and enjoy the fruits of summer.

pool, niecessprings

yes that blueCamera lust officially satiated.

What a beautiful summer you are having! Here it turned to Autumn about two weeks ago, and each morning is a bit colder and a bit darker. After a grey, wet summer we can look forward to months of grey, wet winter. Thank goodness for beautiful photographs like yours to lift the spirits
