Where did the summer go?



Where did the summer go? Despite all the rain and puddles (don't get me wrong, I love puddles as much as the next girl) and cold blustery winds I am still desperately clinging on to the hope that the sun is going to indeed get his hat on soon and make an appearance. Overly optimistic? It is certainly very possible. In an attempt to hold onto the idea of long lazy summer days and hot nights spent outside with friends I am determined to get out and about in the next few days with my camera to try and capture some fleeting images of the season.
I am however extremely looking forward to Autumn and everything it brings with it. Hallowe'en, heart-stoppingly beautiful colours in the trees and lovely smells in the air.. but I am not ready for it yet! I have not had my full fill of summer thankyou very much!
Don't get me wrong, I do think there is some kind of melancholic beauty in rainy days.. the way the clouds turn to smoke and the thick moisture in the air coats everything in a sticky, dreamlike mist. But there is only so much you can take. Perhaps along with my self initiated mission to capture some of the few remaining touches of summer I shall try to equally capture the magic of rainy days..

I'm still holding on for my nice, staggeringly hot summer though. Better late than never.

For the endless rainy days we are experiencing at the moment, how amazing would it be to own this umbrella!










Take care, jess x
