Nature's Beauty


 The beauty of nature close up is extraordinary to see. The pattern of this leaf is glorious!

Happy Friday!! 🌿🌿🌿🌿🌿🌿🌿

Renewal


Happy Sunday!

The photo above features my beautiful maidenhair fern. She's a bit of a resurrection and renewal story for real. Half of her had gone all brown and yellow only a couple of months ago. She was in a sad state. I'm not as green thumbed as my mother was, but I'm working on becoming a better gardener. I love the peace that it brings.

I realized that I was overwatering her and perhaps the bone-chilling ongoing cold of our Wiltshire weather was not helping. Before, I tried to think of what my mom would do and then after thinking it through, I realized that I was overwatering my fern. I thought that I was doing what was right, but I realized that I was suffocating her...drowning her...so I took a step back. And guess what? She's been flourishing :) It's been a lesson for me to relax a bit more in growing as a gardener, but also in my life. The lessons are there and I'm listening.

Have a good Sunday wherever you are :)

Backyard Beauty


I just thought that I'd share this photo that I took this morning. It's the view out to our backyard. I love it when flowers peek around the edges of leaves. Nature is beautiful.

Natural Scenes


I thought that I'd share a few photos from my Instagram account again. Recycling is good ;-)

I've taken these over the last week or so. I love nature and I love capturing little bits of it when I can. Whenever I'm not able to get out and about, I can always take a look at photos like these and I'm instantly taken back to that moment.

All three photos were taken here in Wiltshire. It's great to see the trees and flowers sprouting out for spring.

Happy weekend! :)

Being True


This is a photo that I recently shared on Instagram. It's kinda recycled in a way since it's been posted there, but hey, recycling as a practice is good isn't it? :)

I took this photo one day when I was just sitting in my armchair. I looked out into the backyard. I thought about how that couple of little daffodils are holding their own in contrast to all of that green. They are beautiful and I loved how they contributed a bit of difference to their fully green surroundings.

I may be reaching here, but for me, it reminded me that we must be beautifully and fully ourselves no matter who is around. And when we are true to ourselves, we make our mark and the uniqueness shines through! :)

Hello June...Sunshine and Bits of Green



Hi!

I hope that your weekend was great. Mine was very nice. I took it easy, but got out a little bit to get a breath of fresh air.

The two photos above were taken over the last few days. I thought that I would share them to let you see what I saw. Pardon that they're not exceptional, but they were taken from the passenger seat as we sped along in the car. Lol.

We've had some sunny bits along with some overcast skies over the last few days, so I thought that I'd capture the sunny part while we had it :-)

These photos were taken further off the beaten path here in Wiltshire. I love nature as you know, so I was loving all of the green everywhere! I hope you enjoy taking a look!

Have a great day and Happy June! :-)

A Friday Photo and Blue and Green


Today's Friday photo is another one from nature. It was taken in June 2012 on a walk one day. This photo features my two favorite colors....blue and green. As I've mentioned before, I love blue, but my second favorite is green. Seeing them both together makes me happy. They are the colors of our planet and they make me calm.

On a different note, it's been a turbulent week back home and my prayers are with the people of Baltimore.

Have a good weekend! :)

Green


I just thought that I'd share a picture today. 
I love being out in nature! 
My favorite color is blue, but my second favorite color is definitely green :-)

Have a wonderful day!
