gotta be alert

aah, how i love the lazy months of summer! because of our 'no beach vacation in july and august' policy -too hot!-, we are enjoying a quiet city. nobody cares about work too much. but you never know when something will come up, do you?

more texture!

hehe i've been absent quite a while, haven't i? i've been out of town, which is my favorite activity nowadays. not only nowadays, but always. i need to get out of town.

besides swimming and eating whatever comes to my sight, i took some photos. i even saw one wild animal (which was really surprising for me) for the first time in my life. in the daylight. can you guess which ferocious wild animal i saw? sorry, no photos of it because the ones i took were quite shaky. so i made this into a riddle. hint: it has a domestic version, too.

you know by now that i'm amazed by texture. here i leave you with one. i think this is made of reed, used as a roof material. look at the gaps and the mismatched pieces. the non-uniformity of the string that holds the reeds together. there is always some randomness in which things are handled in this geography. i think i sometimes (not always) i like it. ok, my quest for textures will go on. do you have some textural research material, too?

bye bye july. although i am quite crazy about summer, daylight and hot weather, i never liked you. and i like your younger brother, august even less. what a month! september is ok. may and june are the best;)
