What a wonderful place! If I could but sit in that lovely chair, close my eyes and inhale….perfection. Even though I don’t see any hint of a breeze, the variety of foliage and color imparts movement, while the chair is solid as a rock. …….totally poetic! This would be a marvelous jigsaw puzzle–maybe with ’scratch-and-sniff.

I have been waiting for this to appear as POTD as I have seen it on your website. Beautiful, beautiful shot.

As Katherine said, I too can imagine myself in that chair, smelling the perfume and listening to the the buzzing of the bees. The curves and colours of the lavender and the vertical lines of the chair are a masterpiece.

Borrowing from Katherine and Su for now. Meanwhile let me dream of the essence of the place. Thank you Kevin for the photo.

Would you really crush a path to the chair? It looks so untouched.

My allergies would never let me sit there for more than a minute but your excellent photo tells me how peaceful indeed it would be.

I love the color purple and all the associated hues. The contrast with green is beautiful. This photo feels like a Van Gogh painting to me – I love it!!
