Summer Is Gliding By

I decided to skip the second part of my spring photo-narrative.  Another neglect that I feel sorry about. I simply can't keep up. But perhaps someday, I'm going to post my other spring pictures in My Nature Photography blog, or maybe here, probably sometime in November.

This time, I'm taking a big leap from early spring to summer. The early days of summer were characterized by rains and thick clouds. At times, the weather forecast didn't hold, blame it to the erratic nature of the weather. Later on, real summer stabilized with its distinctive warmth, scent and colors. It came with a wealth of empyreal beauties that I consistently deem as a generous gift from our loving Creator.

So now I'm going to perpetuate some of these gifts that I gathered during this part of the season.

The flower galore:



















The fields of wildflowers:















The meadows, walkways and trails:













The water worlds:















Birds and cattles:








Skywatching:



















Our balcony stuffs: 







These are actually just a few of my astronomical "jewels" stored in my treasure-trove, but more than enough to represent this season's bounty.

Neglect, Neglect.....

Wooohh!!! Two months without posts! I feel bad for neglecting my cyberhome in TWO months. No excuses. Just having my focus diverted to other things.

This means missing pages in a book. I think of a year as a book, each month, each season, each event a chapter or a page. It's a book that runs parallel with my life. I know the book and my life are always there even without this blog. But still, I feel the need to put it all down in writing as a reminder when the days of mental dimness would take over.

So, I have to fill in the empty pages with a few selected pictures of spring that will tell the story in a nutshell.

The first things that caught my eyes when the trees and bushes were still bare were these colorful moss under the pine trees beside our apartment. All the others followed.

The spring skies with variety of  beautiful cloud formations never failed to magnetize my eyes.



skywatch, clouds




















The sun halo is a common sight in the daytime which would last for hours, sometimes all day long.




This is the sundog I watched one afternoon from our balcony.





Every sunset was always spellbinding. I never get tired watching every evening from our balcony.




















The blueberries have bloomed!




Sunlight through our kitchen window




Adornment for our dining room




The night sky has become brighter.





Another spring is gone but I'm not finished with this chapter yet.  Another batch of pictures is on the way. I just hope I won't procrastinate longer.

I'm so happy to be back!
