12 kuvaa /photos - my walk to work June
"So, some tempestuous morn in early June,
When the year's primal burst of bloom is o'er,
Before the roses and the longest day -
When garden-walks and all the grassy floor
With blossoms red and white of fallen May
And chestnut-flowers are strewn-
So have I heard the cuckoo's parting cry,
From the wet field, through the vext garden-trees,
Come with the volleying rain and tossing breeze:
The bloom is gone, and with the bloom go I!"
from 'Thyrsis', by Matthew Arnold (1886)

This is a wonderful series of photos. You have probably the most complete set of photos with season changes that I have ever seen. I hear you are having a lot of rain.
ReplyDeleteI look forward to each month's picture of your walk to work. It is interesting to see the changes month to month.
ReplyDeleteThat is so beautiful and green. I'm surprised not to see any snow in the wintertime shots.
