I am not quite sure what flowers these are but if I see pretty flowers, I take a photo. The cloudy sky provides a nice contrast against the dark purple blossoms.

Some French lilac flowers blooming in our backyard! Right at this moment, lilac season is already over. I thought they would be around all summer but that just goes to show how little I know about flower seasons. Also, did you know you could make lilac lemonade?? Because I sure didn’t! I’m hoping I remember this for next spring.

An intense and vibrant sunset from the beginning of May. The clouds turned yellow and then orange and I was able to capture some stunning shots of the Toronto skyline and the surrounding areas.

More cherry blossoms at Trinity Bellwoods Park in Toronto! The sky was very cloudy but the park was quiet. The cherry blossoms were fenced off so I had to improvise and take photos through the fencing. Here’s hoping next year we’ll be able to experience the blossoms here a little closer.

More cherry blossoms! When visiting the day before, there were some spots I wanted to photograph but it was a little crowded. So instead, we came back the very next morning. I’m super happy we did as there were little to no people there and the sunlight added some vibrancy to the scene. The blossoms were so pink!

An orange sunset as seen through tree branches. After, it turned into a soft skyscape which was followed by fluffy pink and purple clouds.

Just some simple pine needles with snow on top. I wanted these to feel cold so I edited them with a bit of a bluer palette.

Some magical moments at Cherry Beach. The ice that could be seen before was completely covered by snow. It was snowing while we were there and the sun was also starting to set. I’ve never seen anything like it, where the landscape was filled with a golden glow from the hazy sunset while the snowflakes were prettily falling to the ground. It was a peaceful moment that I want to remember always.

The Scarborough Bluffs is one of my favourite places ever. With Lake Ontario being partly frozen, we decided to venture out to the Bluffs for some sights and fresh air. The day was definitely on the colder side so I’m glad I bundled up. The water wasn’t as frozen here as it was down by the pier. It’s possible that it was and eventually thawed with slightly warmer temperatures. Only the water right by the beach had turned into ice. I was hoping for a fully frozen lake here but it’s still February, so who knows what will happen in the future.
As the sun started to set, we ventured up top and I was able to capture some gorgeous scenes of the sky over the lake.

The combination of blue skies at twilight and the tops of bare trees have always fascinated me. Summer, winter, any season, it always feels so dreamy going for a walk and looking up seeing the branches against the clear sky. This attachment also stems from the fact that this is a common occurrence in my actual dreams so seeing it in real life often feels otherworldly to me. These are simpler photos than what I usually capture but I’m still happy I had my camera with me on this walk. Sometimes it’s the simple moments that help pull us through.
