My garden is in full bloom. The month of July brings an explosion of colors which raises my spirits whenever I look out my windows. This is my reward for enduring the summer heat :)

Ci sono giorni in cui bisogna remare controvento con tutte le proprie forze e altri in cui occorre tirare i remi in barca e lasciarsi trasportare dalla corrente. La difficoltà sta nello stabilire oggi quale giorno è. (Simona Barè Neighbors)
There are days when you have to row against the wind with all your strength and others in which you need to pull the oars in the boat and let yourself be carried away by the current. The difficulty lies in establishing today which day it is. (Simona Barè Neighbors)

Most likely a few million images of Neuschwanstein Castle have been taken over the years, but this one is mine. Shot was taken from Marienbrücke on a cloudy drizzly normal late autumn day. Hadn't really thought about posting till today. Hope everyone on flickr is enjoying their week. :-)

Fradley Junction is a canal junction between Fradley and Alrewas near Lichfield, Staffordshire, England and the point at which the Coventry Canal joins the Trent and Mersey Canal. This is looking down towards Keepers Lock from a bridge near the Swan Pub. I didn't go in the pub, it was such a lovely day I just took loads of photos. Here is the first - hope you like it. I textured it, using a combination of my own and a lovely texture from Pongo 2007 - thank you Christy !

Not sure about the location on Flickr's map ... the postcode is DE13 7DN if you'd like to visit - well worth it, lots to do for the children and adults alike. Pub, cafe, wildlife centre, holiday park buried in the trees. And, of course, the canal !
Thanks as always for your support, faves and comments.
Et moi je rêve
Accroché à la lune
Et moi je rêve
De décrocher la lune
Et moi je rêve... (Paroles de la chanson Casting par Christophe Maé)

And I dream, hanging on the Moon.🎶🎵
And I dream
Hanging on the moon
And I dream
To take down the moon
And I dream...
