seven seconds of June

Have a seven-second ride down a road that leads from Amherst to B'town, MA:

Here is the tiny jungle I've been delighting myself with before my trip to the Actual Jungle. You can click through to see it larger.



And here are milkweeds, for pollinators' delectation:



And a sunset ... which is not true in its colors. My phone panics when faced with vividness: it renders the vivid red as yellow. WHY, phone? Why? In other news, I'm going to take an actual camera with me to the Amazon.



I still can't believe it's really going to happen. Every now and then I laugh out loud with delight.

When are you leaving for your trip? It sounds like such a blast to go to the Amazon!

July 22! Still a month away, but I'm psyched!

My phone does that, too. For real fun, try taking a picture of a bright red and green poinsettia. Too much color!

Poor sad phones, defeated by color!

Defeated by color -- now that's a magic system that needs exploration.

My apartment building doesn't have a 13th floor. Clearly there is a 13th floor, and what's going on there? I say it's some sort of magic, and given the color scheme of this building, now I think I know what...

now that's a magic system that needs exploration. --I like this train of thought!

I really look forward to you pix!

BTW have you seen the photos of the Amazon from space? It's amazing!

[asakiyume]

I haven't--I should do a Google search and take a look. I've seen drone photos though, and I get hearts-for-eyes when I do.

I'm delighting in your delight! (And check out the entry I just posted. If you can see this film, I think you'd *love* it--it's a feast for the senses)

I'm very glad you enjoyed!
