summer blooms

Summer is my favourite season of all, maybe because early summer is a time of beauty and abundance in the garden. Summer blooms...like petunias, perennials, lavenders, & hydrageas...they always come back every summer, giving the landscape a very satisfying floral display and charm.

oregon coast

Oregon coast is northwest amazing diverse terrain from rugged cliffs to evergreen forests to sand dunes and sandy beaches stretching from the port town of Astoria in the north to Brookings in the southern tip. It is beyond worth the drive and an absolute breathtaking view of pristine coastline.

As you drive further up the shoreline, you would see one of a kind attractions such as small town restaurants serving seafood, historic lighthouses and buildings, viewpoints, spectacular sceneries and stunning state parks. I really enjoyed our trip to Oregon Coast and I would definitely love to go back again and take more photos.

the withered bouquet

sunset at kitsilano beach, vancouver

There is nothing like watching the sun goes down and sitting beside my loved one while sipping a cuppa of Starbucks coffee on summer nights. I don’t know why I like watching the last few minutes of sunset while the trailing edge of the sun’s disk disappears below the horizon. It's just a beautiful feeling ...

What I like most in sunset is the intense and brilliant colors of red and orange hues of the sky and its afterglows….then comes the twilight…that’s when the surface of the earth is neither completely lit nor dark because the sun itself is not actually visible due to the horizon…I find twilight moments – very romantic moments due to the unusual romantic quality of the ambient light at this time.
