Greetings from a Poppy Field

Published by Sula H.

  So, my mom (who loves photography by the way) had this grandiose idea the other day: let’s go find some poppies and try some pictures. And that’s what we did. We took our bikes, and off we went, on a 3-minute ride to find us some poppies for a nice little photo shoot. And this is what we got …        

How Things Change …

Well, you know how dearly I love me that little mountain we get to go to every once in a while. I usually tell you all about it, whenever I’ve had another chance to get away from town. And we like this mountain for specific reasons. For example, the fact that only few people find their way there. Or that you don’t have to pay money to go for a hike. Or that the trails used to be all natural trails – no stairs, no pavements. Used to be … Because now, there are stairs. Now, there are paved walkways.

I just have to be content with looking at the pictures … … and hope that one day, I’ll get to go myself!

Among Lilacs

Published by Sula H.

It’s Easter. And on top of it, it’s beautiful weather. So, yesterday, I decided to take out my camera and go among the lilacs. As I was out on that walk, I was having so much fun, that in fact, I didn’t just stay among the lilacs, I also did some more exploring among the other blooming creatures of spring. Need proof? Here are the lilacs …   And here, that’s me enjoying a walk on a wonderfully sunny Easter Sunday:   And if you’d like to see more, you can check out the photo gallery.
