A Fire in the nearby mountains


 changes color in the valley.
It bathes everything in a special light. 



Even simple things take on more importance.



Little flowers glow in the light. 



Open fields are greener.



Old does not look quite so old. 



Even one lonely hollyhock, growing through a crack,  is bathing in the sun.

The fire is almost out, they say.  

Have a safe and happy week, 
Gina

    Glad to hear the fire is out. Looks stunning all around the house Gina, as it always does, but as you say the light can make a big difference and give one a new eye on older things which we always love. Beautiful hollyhock - love the shadows it throws on the steps.
    Love x

      Dear Mary,
      You have the artist's eye...noticing the lacy shadows on the steps. It is such a contradiction seeing the beautiful light because of the fire and the fire causing so much damage.
