The sizzling summer sun keeps shining and the heat goes on.
Breathing in the cool air in the morning before sun-up and sitting in the garden at sundown are the best moments of the day for me. Deep blue skies have replaced the greys and neutral tones of a cold spring. To paint a cloudless blue sky is quite a challenge – it is a rare thing and more often seen in mediterranean countries.
Every evening as the sun sets the sky becomes orange/pink/violet – breathtakingly beautiful.
The vale of Blackmore at sunset resembles a Tuscan landscape and the lovely Purbeck hills change from slate blue to purple.
The heatwave will end and rain will come and the grass will become green again but for now I will simply enjoy taking time out to embrace these special summer moments.
