To reach that place where the ocean reaches the sky,
And with full heart bid goodbye to the day.
Then, with open arms to welcome the night,
Saying farewell to the seals and selkie alike,
As the world darkens and fades from sight. --nonsense words by me

My favorite time of year is a long, lingering summer evening. When the sun has set and the balmy air begins to cool my limbs stir with restless energy and I seek occupation to make use of this beautiful time. Lately, I have indulged in small games of badminton on our family's tiny square of grass.Outfit details: shirt- In4mation, shorts- customized J Crew pants, shoes- Urban Outfitters

That first photograph is so beautiful! I love your dress, and the shoe necklace and that horse charm are so cute :) Ahh and the fun of badminton.
The photos are lovely and so is the little poem at the beginning! And I love Badminton :)
Your a poet too, now? Could a person be more jealous?
amazing photos as usual! so gorgeous
Have you ever seen "The Secret of Roan Inish"? It's one of my favorite movies and your poem and the first set of pictures are SO similar. You should definately find it and watch it. I'd love to hear what you think of it.
Oh I love the blue tone of these photos, so pretty and so perfect for your description of the hazy summer evenings. Crisp summer mornings and hazy evenings are my favourite parts of the day in the summer months too.
Really cute pictures dear!
I like your "nonsense words" a lot!
And your first outfit is especially great :)
I used to play badminton all the time (looong ago)
Your photos are so beautiful. I wish I had such wonderful backdrops to take pictures. :)
I noticed that you have a few Pull and Bear items. Where do you purchase yours at?
That first set of photos is so nice and tranquil looking.
I'm a big fan of summer evenings, too. I love going on walks just as it's getting dark or eating a late dinner outside with my family.
Pretty words in the first part! I love the pictures and badminton looks so fun!
Such great outfits... I love your little horse photo!
I love your badminton pictures (and the shirt you are wearing)!
I love your striped shoes!

Omg I have that H&M blue dress and am wearing it right now!
Lovely pictures, as always :)

The first pic looks like a postcard, beautiful!
This post felt like a deep sigh: relaxing and tranquil.
The photos of you by the lake are breathtaking.
your dress and shoes are adorable!
these are some of your most gorgeous photos yet -- I adore the blue tones of the first set, and the water is so perfectly tranquil.
is your post title a Decemberists reference? if so, HURRAH! I was listening to that song about five minutes ago.
wonderful color!
I adore badminton. So much fun. I also used to play with my brother in our backyard, which was not big enough or well-equipped for such games. The birdie usually ended up in a tree or in one of the neighbor's pools. It looks like you have a better area to play in though!
i love summertime dusk too - when everything - even skin looks blue!
Man you must live in a gorgeous place! I loveee those first outfit shots. And yay for badminton =) haha
both sets are beautiful! i especially like how the shades of the water front pics all blend together- the water, the twilight sky, the blue dress, wonderful!
Summer evenings are definitely the best! I absolutely love those photos you have by the lake- so perfectly cool and calm.
beauiful romantic photographs I really think you should do something like fashion photography!!! These are soooo good. I love your dress!
The blue in your photos are just stunning, so soothing and moody. Love the blue dress and that bag too.
PS badminton ROCKS!
The scenery of your photos is so beautiful... The 1st one like a fairytale, while the second one is like a magazine's photo shoot!! Great style...
wow gorgeous shots, I love the faded out blue
I love when you smile!! These shots are beautiful!!

I love the lighting in the first set. Badminton is a fun game. You make a good poet.
I loved looking at these pictures, so soothing. Also, DAMN, girl, how can you post so much on your blog, several times a day and always have new ideas :) I am such an admirer of that. THAT is dedication :D
Such very cute little denim shorts! I've been searching for a pair just like this for so long, perhaps I too shall have to make them myself. It looks like you're having a lovely summer break :)
ooh! the silver horse is so cute :)
I love the tiny horsie!
That beach is SO beautiful. And I really liked reading your little piece at the top.
I love badminton!

I know I'm repeating what others have said here before me, but the blue photos are breathtakingly gorgeous!
And that dress must be the most perfect colour ever :)
This post is just oozing with awesomeness - I love the pictures, summer nights, and badminton as well. :-)
Beautiful pictures! I love the horse charm. Badminton!! I haven't played that since I was a kid!
I love the photos, very artistic!
@Brittney, I bought my Pull and Bear bag in Athens, Greece when I was studying there this past fall. It's the only Pull and Bear shop I have been to.
Your pictures are simply amazing. Can't stop staring at them. And I'm in love with your fringe!
What lovely photographs! They look like some of my grandmother's vacation photos. The dress looks great on you.
And oh, how I adore badminton. Whenever I play, I am unable to resist the urge to adopt an English accent. It just seems appropriate, I guess.
I love your "nonsense words". You must be a romantic person...
Your Pull&Bear bag is fantastic!
Ooooh. The first set of photos seem like figments of Lemony Snicket's imagination. Lovely photos. I envy you and your camera. Darn it! Lol.
The first picture is awesome :).
The first picture is stunning beyond belief. And I love the little horse and the last picture on the post, too!

Your poetry is very lovely and quite fitting for the images it precedes.
That first set of photos remind me of a bunch of polaroids I took at a lake in Finland, See!. So lovely!
beautiful photos and beautiful words. great post!
Wow, I love how you've described your favorite time of year! Such perfect word choice, and I agree completely!
The light and color in the first photos are so dreamy!
Very nice nonsense words. They are that beautiful first photograph in letter carnation!
These water pictures are just wonderful, great job.
