9 days in August

August is my favorite month
there are no official holidays - but each day feels like one

august (definition): 1. inspiring awe, admiration, or reverence; majestic; imposing. 2. of high birth or rank; venerable; eminent [to increase, exalt]

Lunch on the front porch
Collection of embroidery thread
My bedroom window in the afternoon
Antique quilt in morning sun
An arrangement of three things
Reflection of the railroad bridge in the river
Blackberry picking
Selfie while on the phone in my parked car
My bag and what's in it

  6. Beautiful ! Love the "story" of your August. Inspiring little pictures. I love August too, mainly because I love winter. I might have to steal your idea ( if that's ok ? )

  9. Very nice way to represent August! I scrolled down and really love the tutorial of the making of your business cards. They are unique and you are right, who would ever toss such little gems away? Thank you!

  10. So pretty and evocative -- each photo.

    By the way, August 27 is my birthday, and I've always felt like it's a weird, forgotten day. The end of August -- just before everything starts up again.

    I loved this post and had forgotten what the word "august" actually means!
