“Sunshine is delicious, rain is refreshing, wind braces us up, snow is exhilarating; there is really no such thing as bad weather, only different kinds of good weather” John Ruskin

On the 21st day of November

On the 21st day of November
My true love sent to me
One centigrade of minus degrees

On the 21st day of November
My true love also sent to me
Lots of icy cold rain
Several snowflakes of dancing
And one centigrade of minus degrees

On the 22nd day of November
I wish for my true love to send to me
Many more warm degrees
Much of sunshine weather
Or a trip to Hawaii

The flowers on the table

Thursday, 19th of November, Part One

Today, Thursday

Early morning
I woke up
Showered
Looked out the window
It was really dark
The rain had continued
All through the night
Went outside for a while
Snapped a few pics

Worked, worked, worked
Meetings and then some
Had a snack break
The sun appeared
The flowers on the table
Had started to bloom
Snapped a few pics

Worked some more
Afternoon
It was time for a
Splash in the pool
Left to take the dive
Had a few minutes to enjoy the nature
Snapped a few pics

Back home
More work
More meetings
Urgency
Finally,
Working day ended
It was really dark outside
Put out some Christmas decor
Snapped a few pics

Much later
Posted some blogs
Went to sleep
Dreaming of tomorrow…

It will be Fabulous Friday!

Photo101 Rehab, The Clinic: Week 46 Wrap Up, Hosted by Lucile De Godoy

“Last year, after completing the Photo101 course, I opened the Photo Rehab Event in this blog, a ‘healing clinic’, for all of us who love photography (hobbyists, amateurs, pro-shooters and enthusiasts) who missed the course and daily interaction with other photobloggers.” Lucile De Godoy

Check out all the magnificent photographs by excellent photographers for this week from Lucile’s site:

Week 46: Wrap up Photo101 Rehab

Also featured Rantings Of A Third Kind:

Gun at Rantings of a Third Kind is a poet who loves photography. In her blog you are treated with poetry and images of early mist and some reds, no ordinary sunset and sunrise. These are mostly views from her office…Not a bad place to be.

Early Morning Mist with a touch of Red

“There’s never one sunrise the same or one sunset the same” Carlos Santana

From Sunrise to Sunset, Part Three: Sunset, Nightfall

The sun is slowly setting
It is the time for letting
Go of daily grind
Peace and quite to find
The darkness soon will fall
Covering sky, nature and all

From Sunrise to Sunset, Part Two: Daytime

From Sunrise to Sunset, Part Two: Daytime

Leaves have fallen on the ground
The sun hanging low in the horizon
The warm colours painting the trees
The warm red as far as eye can see
November’s day cool and crispy
The weather maybe a little misty
