Germany is melting right now… so I’m mentally escaping back to this view. ☀️🌊 Sun on my skin, ocean breeze in my hair and that little feeling of freedom. Who else needs a moment like this today?

It is a little past the middle of winter and I am missing the rose blooms. Here in Austin, where my husband and I chose to live, we truly have four seasons, even though we didn’t have any snow yet this year, we did have substantial frosts and nature is resting. My garden is predominantly green and brown and except pansies I don’t have anything else flowering at the moment. So the joy when the roses start to bloom again will be great, that is for sure. In the moment I just revel in the anticipation of this years rose season to come and pass the time by digging out old photos like this one. Unfortunately, I don’t know the name of this beauty but I am fascinated by the quartered bloom form which leads me to believe that this is an Old Garden Rose (if you have any idea what rose variety this could be, please let me know in the comments!). I also love the many subtle shades of pink appearing in just this one bloom. The complexity of this rose flower is quite fascinating to me! Are you also dreaming of the upcoming rose season?

Look for the bare necessities, the simple bare necessities, forget about your worries and your strife. I mean the bare necessities, Old Mother Nature’s recipes, that brings the bare necessities to life... (c)

I think I must really need some sand between my toes as I keep gravitating towards the beach theme this week. The blessing and curse of a great spring break is that it’s hard to get back to work!!! . #heatherlieblerphotography #travelphotography #travel #pool #swimming #underwater #abstractart #summer #dreamingofsummer #beach #vacation #waves #water #surf #ocean #beachdreaming #surfing https://www.instagram.com/p/BwojOo1phPw/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1f6st2syaflcp
