Springfields: Mayday
Spalding, UK - Jamie - Sunday, May 1st, 2005 : goo
[previous] :: [next]
The first day of summer? With nothing better to do than milling around Springfields Festival Gardens on the day after the annual flower parade. Sort of on the way to visit my parents, this is the rough halfway point.
Motion comes this time of year
Summer rears his head
Browning skin whilst drinking beer
Winter doldrums dead
Nights draw out and street lamps find
Less hours toil per day
Sun warmed bodies help unwind
April into May
Lunch hours last an hour more
Saturated hues
Vibrant colours; Pinks and greens
Grass beneath new shoes
Summer comes, but Summer goes
Colours turns to greys
Grasp the solace while it lasts
Months or weeks or days

Technically its only spring.. but this is Britain, you gotta be optimistic and grab it while it lasts. So it's summer yay!

Hey, if the sun is out then its summer as far as i'm concerened. Its interesting to note how the national mood shifts so radically with the seasons.
Peter: 3rd May 2005 - 13:18 GMT

I like the colors in the fishy picture. They are so vibrant, you must be have a very good camera equipment to take such vivid photographs. I like the feel of your photography very much here.
