Oh Karin …. what wonderful photographs of the most beautiful sunrise…. and, your garden is still providing you with colour. My Japanese Anenomes are prolific and my Limelight Hydrangea has been glorious. Cold mornings and evenings have now come to the UK and Autumn is setting in but, we are having a beautiful Indian Summer. XXXX

ReplyDeleteJust beautiful. I wish I were there, instead of being half a world away. Redon's quote and vibrant pastel are a perfect choice. Amicalement
