As Spring bloomed into Summer, so did some of my favorite flowers! Our roses never looked more beautiful and abundant.
Longer daylight hours and warmer temps mean more gardening, sailing & time with family and friends. I’ve waited all year for summer fruits and veg, ready for lighter meals and cold drinks. The arrival of lightening bugs leaves no doubt, summer has arrived!
“It was June, and the world smelled of roses. The sunshine was like powdered gold over the grassy hillside.” - Maud Hart Lovelace
I see it as storytelling. I love photography and writing. Partly, it’s a platform for self-expression and a way to eventually work from home but it’s largely about making good memories; whether it’s in the home, traveling, making a delicious meal, baking a sweet treat, painting a positive image or capturing something with photography. They’re all opportunities to make new, lasting memories. In today’s world, although so much of it is still wonderful and lovely, some of it is troubling, sad or frightening. Anything we can do to spread some positivity and comfort is welcome and a chance for our loved ones and friends to draw on those memories when we’re not physically with them one day. Here’s to making amazing memories and creativity!
