Hydrangea blossoms
shades of blue velvet richness
mood indigo ~
From rich vibrant tones to soft pastel hues, Hydrangea are one of my favorite summer show-stoppers!
Birds, are everywhere in my summer gardens. They keep the grounds free of bugs and are a delight to watch as they glean and raise their young.
At the end of a day, I love to relax on the love-seat by the pond and enjoy the light filtering through vine maple leaves as the sun lowers into the west.
Water – the essence of life. From running through sprinklers as a kid, to still going fishing with my family every year, water is a central summer feature.
It has been a cool beginning of summer here in Vancouver, USA. Today the temperature is predicted to reach a high of 80° f (27° c) for the first time this July!
Wishing everyone safe harbor, as we navigate uncharted waters.🐾
Thanks to Amy for this week’s Lens-Artists weekly photo challenge! https://shareandconnect.wordpress.com/2020/07/04/summer/

Fabulous Hydrangea images, I wish they grow here. Love these bird captures.
What a stunning scene “as light filtering through vine maple leaves”. The last photo is breathtaking.
Thank you for sharing with us, Lindy!
Oh. Love the hydrangeas! The spraying water is a favorite too. (P.S. ‘Hi Jello!’)
Beautiful hydrangeas, Lindy. I love them, too. And your last shot of the water reminds me of our visits to the area in the past. Lovely. I hope your temperatures warm up for a while. Our son says the same thing in Vancouver, B.C.!
