this has been a different summer not only has it been hot, with hardly any rain. The flowers all bloomed early the nature turned brownish. These are bigger observations. Personally this summer has been challenging, I was five weeks on a sick leave due to a split tendon and a ripped tendon, walking on crutches due to that now for eight weeks making it very hard to take photos unless I am sitting or have my cameraman handy by my side. I am trying to get back to the groove again.

Welcome August…Daisy is one of my favorite flowers, they represent summer to me and as a summer bride 30 years ago I even had them in my bouquet

s are also sometimes called Blood Moons because of the reddish-orange glow the Moon takes on during the eclipse and I can totally agree with that. I took these last night. We went looking for it like moon struck people, but it was not seen until late that night at our location.

I love the beautiful Birch tree woods you can spot here and there, not too often so that you will be numbed to their beauty

Shooting bubbles in a glass. I think the most trying thing to get right was the mixture of dishwasher and oil and obviously the amount of water. This is my first attempt, you might see more of these in the future.

I enjoy driving in the narrow gravel country roads in the summer, I love how the trees on the side of the road filter the sun that hits the road. The leaves in various shades of green.
