]]> A beautiful window opened into nature with this ruinous setup that is composed nicely to blend into the arboretum. The arboretum is a place of wonder and knowledge, but it is also a testament to the man-made category of nature that is no longer wild. I originally wanted to title this picture as the “Window into the Wilds”, but it would not have been fitting nor true. However, it is more interesting to philosophise on this theme, whether we still have true nature or wild places. There is no wild here that is for certain, at the same time, however, there is the peace of nature that human civilisation have idolised which you can find in this beautiful arboretum that have claimed a piece of the city’s urban reality.

]]> Spring in my garden — 2023

Some hazel had sprouted in my compost and are now growing happily for it is a very nice place, full of nutritious humus for them.

There is also some sweet briar that somehow found its way to my garden years ago. I suspect that it was probably the mischief of some birds… but for me it is a welcome one.

Later on I will take some pictures of my herb garden as well, but they are still too young at the moment and some reside in pots.

My cacti sure do like their place. Each sprout has a lot of flowers every summer, which gives some work for the bees as well. The first cactus was planted by my mother, but I was nurturing it afterwards and I continue to care for them ever still.
The bees are constantly buzzing around. I love to watch them, they are so busy all the time. Summer can be very beautiful sometimes.

Lesvos), Greece, during the spring of 2007. Keep in mind that these are poorer in quality, because I only had a mediocre camera at the time.
