Wind


'It was one of those March days when the sun shines hot and the wind blows cold: when it is summer in the light, and winter in the shade.'


~ Charles Dickens

    Very nice, and also that you got the flag and the person on the bike in your shot.

    Happy Easter!

    I would assume that your prevailing winds come from the west, but the wind in your photo looks like it is blowing from Italy.

    If I didn't know better, I would have thought that this photo was taken on a Pacific Island. I'd be okay with staying on either place!!

    That poor cyclist was probably working very hard to make any headway at all in that stiff breeze.

    The water looks beautiful though. I like the quote a lot because that is how it is in Boston most days in the shadow of the tall buildings.

    You write your blog with Mr Dickens, Jilly ? :- )
    I'm yet wondering how you found the perfect quote to illustrate your picture.....That's not fair !

    A picture is worth a thousand words, your photo says it all Jilly!
    (although the Dickens quote is a perfect complement to it)

    Reminds me of Winslow Homer - who loved painting palm trees in the wind.
