Lupine Abstract © 2010 Bo Mackison
While looking through my files for a few photographs to print for my upcoming art show, I accidentally popped open the catalogue of the photos from the Pacific Northwest trip I took earlier this summer, and this abstract of a blue lupine opened on my screen. I was rather taken with the deep purple and blue botanical abstract on the green background.
It seems like only a few weeks ago I was knee deep in bright blues and greens, and now, suddenly, the world is shifting, taking on different shades – more muted, warmer colors — yellows and oranges — replacing the brightness of summer’s peak. So I wanted to share a reminder with you of this past early summer as we pitch headlong into autumn.

That is a very nice blend of summer colors. I will savor it for awhile: I’m really not ready yet for Fall.
I’m with Montucky. Let’s savor every drop of summer while it’s here (and then on to skiing).
Beautiful colors and perspective. Yes, fall is coming rapidly.
