The other evening, my wife and I went for a stroll along the Thames Path
not far from London's Chelsea Harbour and stopped to sit awhile in a
delightful spot known as Imperial Park where greenery and calm are to be
found.
As we parked ourselves on a bench savouring the ambiance of a summer's
eve in a big city blessed with trees, grass and flowers in abundance, I took
these two pictures from where we sat for those few minutes.
A gentle breeze made its presence known by playing out a symphonic poem
on the panoply of leaves of the rock elm trees standing close to each other:
music that sounds out a message where life is in the ascendant and it means
so much to be alive and to be able to appreciate moments of magic like this.
These two images will always remind me of the simple, sublime happiness
one can experience from the existence of nature all around us.
Onwards and upwards,
Nicholas
