Covid-times spring 2020

Thought to post some greenery in this dull wintry days. :-))

Can't travel yet (at least for me), so, this is from my archives. Beautiful memories, that was!

Note: this was taken in the moving train. I'd say about 90% of time while traveling in Switzerland, we were in the train. It was difficult to capture anything when it was moving, esp, the glare of the window was NG. So, I ended up taking many shots using my smartphone, and must go against the window to take it. Switzerland is such a beautiful country, landscape wise. You could just shoot anywhere, it'd come out in awe. Too bad, we didn't have much oppor. to do so. This was the next best thing.:-))

..Палитра ярких чувств, желаний

нарядным цветом лепестков

напомнит сердцу все, что с нами

произойдет за гранью слов...

пусть розы празднично украсят

подарок искренней души...

даруй Вам Бог палитру счастья

и краски солнечной любви....A palette of bright feelings, desires

with an elegant color of petals

will remind the heart of everything that

will happen to us beyond words ...

let roses festively decorate

the gift of a sincere soul ...

God grant you a palette of happiness

and the colors of sunny love...

Beautiful greenery

Darjeeling, the Queen of Hills known for its delicious tea, beautiful gardens, natural beauty, and the Steam Engine - located at the highest altitude, it is one of the most sought after locations.

Darjeeling can be enjoyed in its true essence. Known for its pleasant weather, a mix of cultures, a city like Darjeeling offers tourists an experience of a lifetime.

There are 4 or 5 species of orange-colored globemallow flowers that can be found in Colorado. Based on the location, the overall appearance, and the shape of the leaves, I deduce that this is Small-leaf Globemallow (Sphaeralcea parvifolia).

There was a mass of grasses, vines and other plants on a slope at Colorado's Red Rock Park, but these spikes of bright orange flowers stood above the tangled greenery--a most delightful sight.

Among the greenery sits a Canada Goose Gosling cast in the warm rays of the sun. Some of the goslings are really starting to mature such as this one here.

Thank you all for your comments, faves and support. I do not know why lately there was a sudden growth of interests in my work, so, I am sorry if I do not reply or reciprocate your comments and faves.

Chinese gardens are constructed to recreate and miniaturize larger natural landscapes. Traditionally, Chinese gardens blend unique, ornate buildings with natural elements. Just about every Chinese garden contains architecture, like a building or pavilion; decorative rocks and a rock garden; plants, trees and flowers; and water elements, like ponds. Most Chinese gardens are enclosed by a wall and some have winding paths. Chinese gardens aren’t just thrown together. Instead, they’re deliberately designed and visitors should walk through them in the particular order that the garden was laid out.

The Chinese Garden of Friendship (simplified Chinese: 谊园; traditional Chinese: 誼園) is a heritage-listed 1.03-hectare (3-acre) Chinese garden at 1 Harbour Street, in the Sydney Central Business District, City of Sydney, New South Wales, Australia. Modelled after the classic private gardens of the Ming Dynasty, the garden offers an insight into Chinese heritage and culture. It was designed by Guangzhou Garden Planning & Building Design Institute, Tsang & Lee, and Edmond Bull & Corkery and built from 1986 to 1988 by Gutteridge Haskins & Davey; the Darling Harbour Authority; Imperial Gardens; Leightons; and Australian Native Landscapes. The gardens were added to the New South Wales State Heritage Register on 5 October 2018. The Chinese Garden of Friendship was designed by Sydney's Chinese sister city, Guangzhou in China. Sydney's Chinatown complements the area's already rich in Chinese heritage and culture. The garden was officially opened 17 January 1988 as part of Sydney's Bicentennial Celebrations and named the Chinese Garden of Friendship symbolising the bond established between China and Australia. 14974

I am feeling the need for some green today and in lack of the same some abstract urban greenery will do :)

Happy Gorgeous Green Thursday everyone!
