The Glorious Spring Light

Spring is certainly one of my favourite times of the year, for so many reasons that I am not sure where to start.


The trees are blossoming, new foliage is growing, the first flowers are springing out of the winter devastation, the days are getting longer and finally - the light is changing. The darkness is over, the light is becoming so pure and bright, it is a real pleasure to press that shutter button. And since photography is my most enjoyable pastime how can I not be joyous and happy that spring has arrived?   

Now is the moment to crawl through the gardens and new greenery and explore the neighborhood, to look up the cherry and apple trees and forget yourself for a while.

Just admire that gorgeous nature all around you, basking in the glorious spring light, shake off the winter darkness, grab the camera and get out of hiding and back into the light. 
And don't worry,  summer is on its way...

Happy New Year to you all

The winds are blasting outside, the weather is absolutely appalling but I still have to go out and walk the dogs because they don't really care if I feel like going out or not, if I like the weather or not!! But hey, I love the giant buggers so much, I don't mind at all!!! I only wish the weather was better so I could stop for a few photos on the way, the first for the new year maybe but alas not this time...

So here you go have a few photos from last year just because I can!!

Happy New Year to you all and have a great one!!!

Lost in the magic of bad weather

Yes, I am still lost in a perpetual, day-after-day succession of  storms with thunder and lightning, and more and more rain, and more wind....


For how long, I do not know, but it feels as if it has been going on forever.

And believe me, it is as if someone wrapped the area where we live in an invisible bubble of bad weather, because it is definitely not as bad everywhere else in the county and in the country.

The bad weather is localized just here. It is extra rainy and extra windy. Sometimes, just a few kilometers away it's nice and sunny, while where we live it pours like crazy!!

It all has to do with the position of our town I believe, so there is nothing we can really do about it except get some really good rain gear and tough it up.

As usual my images look a bit strange, so Google hasn't resolved their issue with uploading images yet.  Very annoying situation because I lost a lot of time deleting and finding new ones instead of the ones I was planning to use!!

A morning of peaceful photography

After 3 weeks of permanent storms - crazy rain and wicked wind, we woke up to a wonderful unexpected, glorious golden morning.  


Needless to say I was out in a flash with my fingers itching to take some pictures in peace and quiet without donging the wind and the falling raindrops.  

So here is what came out of that lovely gorgeous morning of peaceful photography:











thank you for the visit everyone and see you again!!


 P.S I am very disappointed because once again I could not publish all the photos I had prepared since the colours went completely nuts!! 

Most of the photos were distorted and the colours run and bleached!! 
Does anyone know anything about this? I would appreciate some feed back. 

This is a photo blog, I need to rely on the proper presentation of colours and images!! 
If I can not publish my photos here in peace and as planned I certainly feel discouraged to continue working here in Google!!  

I am not giving up yet! But if anyone has some info please write to me!!

Thanks!!

July dreams in February

I am so tired of the rain and the bad weather I find myself daydreaming of summer. I am thinking of those wonderful July walks, very early ...
