Spring is in the air

Natural mural art

During last Summer, in my sister’s garden…

My uncle his garden

My auntie and uncle live in a city. But if you enter their garden, it’s an oasis of peace.
These pics were made last August (2013). Come and enjoy.

Floral art – Nieuwpoort, Belgium

I love the Belgian coast and especially on those moments when the touristic season is over. No crowded places, lonely beaches, freedom…that’s what I like so much.

During our last holiday we were lucky to visit this floral art day at Nieuwpoort, another city along the Belgian coast.

“More than 250 different kinds of dahlia’s, which represent about 10.000 flowers, bloom in the recreation park: a real treat for the eye, especially in August and September!”

That’s what draw my sister and me to Bredene during our holiday in September 2013. We thought it would be very interesting and it was. Such a lovely mixture of colors and different kinds. Therefore I will make a mini-series about the Dahlia flowers.

Blue

Blue is my favourite color ever since I was a kid. Therefore I had to take a picture of this art work in Nieuwpoort at the Belgian coast. I love it.

Flowers

“Life is the flower for which love is the honey”.

Orange

“Orange is a power color. It is one of the healing colors. It is said to increase the craving for food. It also stimulates enthusiasm and creativity. It is the color of adventure and social communication. The color orange is optimistic and extroverted.”

I don’t know whether that’s all true. But I really like the orange color of the flowers.
