Lens-Artists PC: Garden through seasons

This is my family’s garden in Ljubljana in as many seasons as I have witnessed since moving away.

It’s been five years since and even though I return as much as I can, it’s usually only summer or winter. This year I’ve added October and November to the mix.

In my previous bedroom, just a few houses down the street from this garden, I had four photos of the same tree in four seasons on the wall. This is the closest I can some to that.

You will notice that spring, or better entire months of February, March, April and May, are missing. Next year we need to fix that, at least in part. You never know when seasons could be taken away from us and how we will miss them.

The first gallery contains images taken from the same window. You’ll keep seeing a bunny.

January 3, 2016: This was quite a snowfall.

July 20, 2018: Getting ready for sister’s birthday party.

August 6, 2017: Annual card tournament.

September 1, 2018: Uncle picking radicchio to take with us to Tuscany.

October 12, 2018: Surprising colour scheme after not seeing it for five years.

November 18, 2018: This and the next two photos taken in three days.

November 20, 2018: 8.40 am.

November 21, 2018: 1.30 pm. Snow fully gone.

December 18, 2018: No other snow yet but ready for it.

And here is the window from which these were taken and some additional seasonal photos. The bunny was a gift to my mother from her cousin, the same whose painting the card tournament winner took home two years ago.

The window and the bunny.

Let’s go to the garden now. This is the light in January.

In June it’s wild with life.

Uncle’s yield.

Friends and sisters by the bench.

August: The king of the garden supervising the tournament.

Brother and sister (with Slovenian and Ljubljana flag behind) after another successful tournament.

In 2017 this rain in August was the first for me in months.

Let’s move back up to the window. (Mind the bunny.) Before you saw what you can see if you look to the left.

This is what you see if you happen to win our card tournament. 😉 Duša’s painting was the first prize.

This is what you see if you look straight in October.

And this is what you see to the right. A neighbour in a high place. 😀

If you enjoy such a seasonal drive-by, here are four previous ones from Tuscany:

• The field
• The lake
• My everyday view
• Cypress field
