(Oxford Dictionary)

Fleeting Summer

Summer's short up North. Not long ago days got longer, sun warmed the land.
Spring flowers sprouted, buds and sticks shooting fresh light green.

Warming up

Sprouting

All of a sudden an endless Summer. Blossom white and pure. Flowers and Bees.
Endless days, bright nights, warmth of evening. Simpson skies.

Blossom Bee

Lush of Green

High Summer

Endless Skies

Warm Afternoon

Life Abundant

Endless Nights

Serenity

Ever so slowly, subtle change. Darker shade of green, old and dry. What lives withers and dies.
Summer's short up North, and now it bids Goodbye.

Dried

Fading

Spent

Empty Shell

Premonition

Hope

Wonderful series in keeping with the theme.

Now you need to continue it with fall colours, bare trees and the dreaded sn*w!

Thank you so much for the nice commentary Larry!
Yeah, now I've got nine months to complete the rest of the year. Kind of wish it was the opposite though :-).

Beautiful. "Sprouting", "Touch of Green", "Serenity" are magic, ethereal. Just beautiful. Fantastic!

Well done!

Very enjoyable series to view, great theme and photos to support.

Great shots and nice variety. I liked Lush of Green a lot, but I thought Serenity was the best. I like it's simplicity and complementary colors. Good job!
