The Essence of Summer

I wonder, what is the image in your mind that reminds you of summer the most?

For me,  it's the summer grass, dancing gently in the breeze.

I can look at it forever and never get enough. Sometimes it makes me wonder if it has hypnotizing powers because I definitely have problems taking my eyes off all the dancing grasses every time I am out walking, in the car or just looking out of the window.

Storm Desmond, Galway, Ireland

While storm Desmond rages outside, I can not miss this opportunity to post my photos from today's walk to the waterfall in Oughterard. 


Needless to say I did not meet anyone on the way there except a couple of horses having lunch. The road was flooded heavily under the railroad bridge, the water reached almost up to my knees!!

The RED WEATHER ALERT is still on, all roads in the area are flooded, rivers are running crazy, people's gardens have disappeared....

I HOPE YOU ARE WARM AND SNUG AND DRY TONIGHT while reading this post. 

Unfortunately I did not have my camera in my disposal so I had to use my phone. The images are a bit dodgy for my standard but sorry people this is all I have. Here they are:
