Thank you so much for your kind words yesterday. It is my pleasure to share with you here (and on Flickr) the photos I take everyday, on vacations or special occasions. It makes me happy if you really enjoy them, and appreciate sincerely when you find the time to tell me so. Thank you from the bottom of my heart. No word's left unread or un-appreciated.

These are now some photos taken from the summer house's garden, but looking up, this time.

a common chaffinch (pinson des arbres / fringilla coelebs),
singing on top of a tree in the garden

One evening, the clouds gathered & I was in the garden, camera in hand. Swallows were dancing in the air, loops after loops, and the clouds, ever changing shapes, were looking almost unreal. It was quite a show to witness, in its very simple yet magnificient & magical way.

Needless to say, I never edit my photos for the blog, unless you can clearly see it (watermark etc). They are always straight out of the camera. These photos are even better when viewed larger, on Flickr.

A couple of extra photos, of the prunus leaves, becoming lace because of some insects (didn't have the time to investigate). I loved the way they looked, though.

Unrelated but dear to my heart anyway, I pre-ordered yesterday my copy of the very exciting & long awaited Geninne's book, "Making An Impression". I am really eager to get it, come October. You can pre-order your copy here or here (or here for the French ones of you)

Thank you for stopping by & for your kind comments ! Have a magnificient day !

xoxo
