Double vision
A soft breeze through the ferns; just enough to wake this sleepy morning.
“It’s a new dawn … (and I’m feeling good)”
In an effort to improve mobility in my arthritic knee, I’m seeing a physiotherapist who has given me a new exercise programme. Since the best place to add something to my day is the beginning, I’m getting up earlier.
Beautiful morning skies are an added bonus.
The post title comes from the song “Feeling Good” by Anthony Newley and Leslie Bricusse, made famous by the fabulous Nina Simone.

Silent Sunday
I woke this morning to find the neighbourhood asleep under a blanket of unseasonal fog.
The local park was strangely empty of joggers and dog-walkers.
Even up on the main road, there was hardly anyone around. Silent Sunday indeed.
Wordless Wednesday

“But soft! What light …”

Early morning mists create wonderful soft light and I’m lucky to live in an area that still has some tall trees to silhouette against the lightening sky.
The post title comes from the famous balcony scene of Romeo and Juliet. Though of course, Romeo was using “soft” as an exclamation, and was certainly more interested in wooing Juliet than any quality of the light around them.
