In Which Gardening Will Not Redeem Diocletian

Good morning, my friend! I am fighting against the desire to sleep, as I do want to write a post today. My eyes are so heavy, my muscles are all failing, it is like I am going to explode in exhaustion. And yet, maybe it isn't sleep, it could be anemia in any case, I hope you are in a healthier position than me, today? Of course, do let me know. And also, let me know how is the weather? Here it is one day of mild winter, which is so much appreciated. Fun how just being some centimeters in a different direction, concerning the planets, can make a difference! Here, it means the difference between a scorching day, and a more mild one. There could be influence of the ocean currents as well, but anyway, I would love to jump to today's theme, that motivated me to write. If you allow me, let is jump to it! As I mentioned anemia, let us turn to gardening, or more specifically, to cabbages and lettuces. I saw a post today that pointed that Emperor Diocletian abdicated the throne to go ta...

Picture of the week! In which we go on a walk in the park with a very special Picture!

Hello everyone! Happy Wednesday to you and good evening!! How are you today and how are things going? I hope your day is going well and I wish you the best! You are awesome! Actually you are the best. So, how is the weather where you are? Here it is still very hot but I can start to sense it is becoming more fresh, or at least having a less intense sun, or more clouds in the sky maybe, is this the summer - or fall???? - giving its place to winter time, the fresher months of June and July? I don't want to get my hopes up BUT, I am really excited! It is quite weird having Summer in this time of the year while in the north is summertime, mindly my calendar goes with the north, but I do love winter no matter the time of the year, though I'd love some snow, or even rain, on Christimas, living in the tropics though, not gonna happen, or at least not until the apocalypse! We don't want the end of the world now do we? I don't think so, so yea, no Snow for the tropics. 
Recently I made a pen pal who is very passionate about photography! He is extremely filled with knowledge on this field, and has kindly shared his huge amount of information with me, showing me truly a whole new world! Recently he shared a wonderful picture with me and I was so impressed by it that I asked him if I could feature it in my picture of the week topic! Of course he must think I'm so easily impressed and the picture could use some extra work, but well I stand strong on the opinion that the picture is absolutely superb! Anyway, he said yes, to which I'm very grateful, so let us jump into it and check the beautiful landscape it portrays


So here we have such a lovely set of trees and grass with colors so vibrant! I just liked it a lot! He is really talented! I couldn't tell if this is a park or not, but it does sound like it, and if it is I would love to have a walk on this place, I would take some pictures of my own as well, probably not close of being as good as this one, but my friend says to keep practicing so I'll just do my thing, I do love taking pictures, though I don't use a camera too often, I most of the time use my phone. 
I loved the red tree, it gives me some ideas for a sketch! How about blue and pink trees as well? Hm I think that sounds good, on a brainstorm period as I am now for more drawings, every thought is welcome by me! I've been doodling a lot on my sketchbook as well in search of ideas, maybe it is a cheaper and more effective alternative from full on drawings on paper, it does allow for more experimentation as well! The quality of the picture also impresses me greatly, I can zoom in very closely and I can't see much blur, which is quite amazing!! It won't stop to amaze me. I must thank my pen pal once more for allowing me to share his picture on my blog, he is great!
And anyway, that is about it for today's post, hope you may have a good night, thank you so much for being here, dear reader, you are the best!! I am very grateful for you! Hope you may have a wonderful rest of your week and I see you the next time!
