Oh, my gosh, what beautiful and artful pictures! You have certainly captured "summer". I can't say which is my favorite but the one with the ladybug is certainly up there at the top. All of them make me feel so peaceful and relaxed. Great job! Thanks for sharing and keep on sharing!!!

Karen, nice poem to go with her picture!

Thank you everyone so very much for your feedback and your kind words.

I just love this time of the year with all its sounds and scents, when everything outside is so full of life, and the big heat is not yet here... If I was able to capture a little bit of it, I'll be happy.

Gini, I love cows, too! Those looked especially content to me as their home is a hill moor meadow deep in the forest. It's very special.

Karen, this is such a wonderful poem! I really admire your talent to put all these impressions and the entire atmosphere of that moment into words. This is exactly what I felt when I was there, and you found the words for it! So beautiful!

As usual your pictures are breathtaking Kirsten. I love the one with the lady bug but those cows look so in sync with the picture. Just awesome

Karen brought out the mood of your pictures with her poem, you make a great team...lovely poem Karen.

Thanks a lot, Asiel!

Our summer is taking a break right now, but I hope it will soon be back!

Here are three pics I took yesterday, before the sky turned gray:

Okay, the last one is nothing special, but it gives you a good impression of the countryside in my area.
