June Bloom

Locals often to refer to the weather pattern this time of year as June gloom; foggy with a hint or tease of sunshine every other day or three.  It has been cool and overcast frequently, but we have half days of warmth and brightness so that they are much the more enjoyed and appreciated.
Recent days have been filled with much work and preparation for guests. Now, everything is in order:



Today there is an opportunity to post a few of June's blooms.
 Coastal fairy bells:
Sunny side up:
Columbine:

Cineraria, which are everywhere!:

Foxglove, fuschia, also especially abundant:

These are only a very few of June's ungloom.

Very nice composition Mark, the overhead shots almost have the feel of looking at a zen garden.
