Spring so far has been exceptionally dry, with plenty of sunshine, though I'm finding the wind very cold. It's that time of year when I still tend to be wrapped up in a warm coat, gloves, even a hat sometimes - and note that I'm walking behind a young guy or girl who's in shorts and a t-shirt!
I had a long walk on Saturday so Sunday needed to be a short one: my usual stroll down to the canal, park and back. I think I'm reasonably fit but some days it feels like I'm walking through treacle and other days walking's a breeze. I can never quite predict how it's going to be. I guess I just have to accept it.
Saltaire and the park were full of folks enjoying the sunshine. I've photographed these same scenes countless times. It's kind of reassuring in these turbulent times that life goes on, the seasons come and go, people still enjoy simple pleasures. Timeless.
I feel the same about the timelessness and reassurance.
ReplyDeleteAlso, I can't help but wonder at how little some people seem to feel the cold!! It's been equally dry (way too dry, actually) in March/April so far, with plenty of sun but often a cold wind. I am very cautious about not getting too cold; it takes me ages to feel warm again when that happens.
When the sun gets stronger in spring it feels so good to sit against a wall and savour it.
