It's hard to believe that fall is on our doorstep already! Where did the summer go??? We've had such a very mild summer here in Seattle and we had a very mild winter last year, so I'm curious to see what we'll have this year. But whatever, there's no doubt there will always be beauty to photograph -- sometimes we just have to look a little bit harder. I didn't have to look harder this week however! Enjoy your week in your world!

ReplyDeleteHi Sylvia! What a lovely photos and again very wise quotations of Mark Twain! I wish you a great week!
ReplyDeleteHi Sylvia, molto belle queste immagini del tuo mondo.

Bella la rosa bianca :-))
Buona giornata.
How beautiful all of these are. That flower is just stunning and I love love love that last photo. The quotes are so wonderful as well. Excellent my friend. Wonderful world. :) xoxoxo
ReplyDeleteAutumn might be on your doorstep, but it's still waaaay down the block from mine. But that shouldn't surprise anyone. Not around here anyway.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful sequence of shots. The one with the sailboats makes me wish I was sailing there right now. I am ready for fall. I can hardly wait for October and November which is fall here.
ReplyDeleteFabulous collection of shots, very scenic. The colors of the sky are pleasing.
ReplyDeleteSome beautiful pics for sure, but I'm in denial - let there be summer...and until I see the leaves changing, I'm not ready to accept the change of season is close.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful colors of the sky. It's great world we live in.
ReplyDeleteYour photos inspire serenity, Sylvia. Autumn is my favorite time of year. I love the colours, the quieter beaches and the cloud-filled skies where orange sunsets peek through.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful scenes Sylvia but that last photo is just awesome. Autumn is certainly on its way here in Scotland. Thanks for your visit today :) Rosie, CoI
ReplyDeleteA mild summer sounds very nice! It was hot here so I am looking forward to autumn. Your sunsets are lovely!
ReplyDeletei really like that white rose a lot.
ReplyDeleteout here in the bay area, we are having our taste of summer. we are expected to have a mini heatwave of sorts.
can't wait for fall too. i want to enjoy the leaves changing.

Beautiful pictures again. I love the last rose of summer. Gorgeous photo.
ReplyDeleteThat first photo is stunning, I hope that is not the last rose of summer. Autumn is good but cold winter follows.
ReplyDeleteEnjoy your week.
Summers last full moon sending its light to make bright this entry of yours. Amazing moon picture. Please have you all a good Tuesday.
ReplyDeleteYour world is filled with beauty. What a view!
ReplyDeletethe perfect white rose reminds me of 'Beauty and the Beast' , do you remember the old B&W French version with Jean Marais? I saw it when I was about 19 and still am vividly under its spell.
Thank you for your friendship and your concern. Things are looking up a little.
Enjoy what is left of your summer with its pleasant temperatures.
Beautiful! I love the sailboats. The last shot is spectacular. Your weather in Seattle is lovely, I wish for a mild winter....
ReplyDeleteBeautiful, Sylvia. I especially love the rose. I swear I can smell it from here.
ReplyDeleteThat rose is like a ball gown.
ReplyDeleteSylvia: Love your choice of photos this week.
ReplyDeletethis is a beautiful world
ReplyDeleteYour quotes and pictures are always wonderful.
ReplyDeleteGreat photos as always, Sylvia. I especially love the first one, with the sun reflecting off the water and the sailboats to complete the scene.
ReplyDeleteIt didn't feel like summer last week in my world but I agree that there's always beauty to be photographed whatever season it may be.
ReplyDeleteFantastic photos & quotes as always. Joy certainly should be unconfined. :)
That white rose is particularly lovely. I do so love Mark Twain. I laughed when I read about not getting enough compliments. How funny!
ReplyDeleteWhat a beautiful place to be! The peaceful waters and glorious skies is an opportune time to go sailing!
ReplyDeleteWe are just feeling the summer heat and I envy your cool world!
Thanks for sharing the beauty of your part of the world with us. Your photos are wonderful as usual.
ReplyDeleteThe white rose is so soothing.
ReplyDeleteLovely captures.
Lovely photos Sylvia.
ReplyDeleteNice photos along with their quotes. I love this one: "Learn from yesterday, live for today, hope for tomorrow. The important thing is not to stop questioning. - Albert Einstein
ReplyDeleteHave a nice day!
You are really surrounded by a beautiful world ! Our summer was very short this year. Almost no spring then a heat wave and the whole August was cold and rainy ! It's a miracle that I don't have flippers yet !
ReplyDeleteI better don't think about autumn, I hate it !
Very beautiful photos. Love the last photo and quote. I am so tired today, I wish I could dance now...lol.

Lovely photos Sylvia, i like it all! very inspiring and the sunset is great! Good day1thanks for sharing..
ReplyDeletewe had a hard winter last time so we hope for a mild one. But not yet. First we want a good fall.
ReplyDeleteI was so sure I had commented on your Tuesday blog, because I remember thinking wise things about Mark Twain. But I was wrong, which happens to me a lot lately.
ReplyDeleteLoved your photos, and the Twain quotes. My favorite of his, though: "When I was younger, I could remember anything, whether it happened or not."
A beautiful rose and super sunsets! What more do we need for a beautiful world?
ReplyDeleteLove your beautiful inspirations! Oh...sigh of contentment~
ReplyDeleteKK
This meme looks fun...I'll join next week!
ReplyDeleteSee you on Sunday! :)
Wow, that last shot looks as if the ship is heading straight for "gold"!
