Ah, the perfect essence of Indian summer!
wonderful.
Betwixt and between, the dragonfly waits. You're a real marvel!!
very nice, polona. by some strange coincidence i was looking up the term "indian summer" on the net yesterday to see what it means. i saw it in someone else's poem. it is not a term used here down under (at least to my knowledge).
Love this one Polona!
the cycle of nature goes on.
the living hovering over a decaying.
great words!
I'm jealous! I tried all summer to take a picture of a dragon fly. :)
Beautiful! It is interesting that indian summer is babje leto in Russian too:)
A lovely reverence of a beautiful theme polona...
I was wondering whether Indian Summer has anything 'Indian' about it!!!
we're lucky to have a spell of fair weather here... thank you,aurora!
thank you, sweet kai!
charlie: i'm more than pleased if i succeeded in that. thank you
you're most kind, pat! thank you!!
(and have a great weekend)
jm: i was unaware that you down under were not familiar with the term. than you for commenting.
margie, thank you!
dsnake: many thanks!
there's not much time for the living either. winter is near...
i'll take that as a compliment, andrew :)
no dragonflies on this pic, but i saw a couple yesterday, only i couldn't make them pose for me this time :)
natalia: thank you! yes, there are similarities between the two languages. the synonim "indijansko poletje", a literal translation of indian summer, is also used here.
amalendu: many thanks. although it is commonly believed that the term refers to the native americans, it is also possible that it has something to do with india :)
Most pictures of autumn leaves emphasize their beauty. I like this one because it shows the changes in action, accented by the beauty of the dragonfly, which gives it a certain pleasurable tension.
mb: thank you for your insightful comment!
