spring : a seasonal series

these photos were taken on august 9th; the day that I noticed the warmth, the day that we picked blossoms and jasmine, the day that spring arrived ...albeit early.  

This past week we have been waking an hour or so earlier with the sun. We're walking barefoot, too. Spring is here.

I've come full circle with this series; a documentation of the seasons that has acted as a constant reminder to stop and observe nature. In doing so I have been taught an invaluable lesson; when we honour the seasons and follow their rhythms we experience wellbeing - in every aspect of our being. Throughout winter (a fleeting, mild one) I allowed myself the time and space to adopt a hibernation, of sorts. Now, as spring beckons, I'm embracing busyness; opening the windows, packing away the wool throws, decluttering and feeling lighter, a little more energised. 

Happy spring...and Happy Father's Day to all those wonderful, dedicated Dads out there!

  2. We enjoyed a beautiful Spring day in our part of the Hunter Valley - here's hoping for a glorious Springtime across NSW! Delay the scorching days, I say :)

  3. Autumn has wrapped itself around us here in Denmark today with rain and wind, it is so life-affirming to see that somewhere...well, almost over the Rainbow ;)... Spring is unwrapping itself.

  6. While we had a pretty chilly winter here in Melbourne, the past two days have seen the sun shinning, we are in shorts, and (apart from the almost immediate hay fever) we all have a spring in our step. x
