It is so peaceful and I feel like time is standing still, but it's only the island playing a trick. I see the rugosa hugging the bank with fragrant blossoms ripening into rosy hips. It's already mid-summer.

About Me
- smilla4blogs
- Thoughts and images of Maine and beyond. I have lived in Iran, Bahrain, Hong Kong and England and I loved all of those places, but for me, Maine has been a constant... I feel most at home on this rocky shore and I became a full time resident in 1993. Winter's bitter cold and dark days were an adjustment, but I now view this season as a time of peace and creativity. This is primarily a photo blog of the things I love... the back roads, small towns, gorgeous shoreline and blissful days spent on the water, with a bit of every day minutiae thrown in just for fun. It is meant to be a companion to Flickr, a global community of photographers and a place where over nine thousand of my photos have found a home. Here, I want to combine my photo stream with a narrative for a more interactive experience and to give some additional information on the images. I hope you will take a moment to visit. All photos are my own, unless otherwise noted.

The last photo is so fine.
ReplyDeleteTo those of us tied to work and car in summer, these photos are a reminder of what summer was like when we still got to participate. Oh how perfect...
ReplyDeleteThank you Barbara...I've always loved that particular view.
ReplyDeleteDilettante ~ Peter and I are so aware that most Mainers never get to experience a Maine summer the way the tourists do and that it is a nose-to-the-grindstone make or break time. I know you don't have time to dally, but we're in the book if you're passing through!
As I drive my 65 miles to work in 90-something heat I'll be thinking of these lovely photos. To sit, back against a rock, not wanting to get back in the car and move on - how better to spend a quick half-hour with one's thoughts and the scent of the ocean?
ReplyDeleteThank you Blue, it is wonderful to think my photos could bring a few moments of reverie on a 65 mile commute in 90 degree heat. I'm sending an ocean breeze your way in spirit!
