Angels With Golden Halos... ♥

People say that daisies are sunshine to the ground and I truly believe that, I also think that they're like little angels with golden halos, so pure and dainty, too pretty to pick but you just can't resist to. I think they're the most cheerful flowers you could ever set your eyes upon and they really help to brighten my mood when I'm out and about, there isn't a more delightful sight for me to witness than a patch of lush green grass crowned with a host of daisies.

I took some time this weekend to just reflect upon things and sit amongst the daisies in the patch of grass in my stepfather's yard. The sun was shining warmly on my skin and apart from the odd nettle sting, it was just perfection sitting there making daisy chains and photographing the dainty daisies surrounding me.

I took this post as any opportunity to play with filters and I think daisies make a really great subject for doing this, it must be the white petals that make them the perfect canvas to play with. I've also given you a glimpse of the face behind my camera - I just couldn't resist a daisy selfie (or two!) to begin my summer days.

During my time of self-reflection amongst the daisies I collected some valuable thoughts, but as I couldn't put it any better myself I thought I'd share a quote by Nadine Stair instead, because I feel exactly the same -

"If i had my life to live over, 

I would start bare foot earlier in the spring

and stay that way later in the fall.

I would go to more dances.

I would ride more merry-go-rounds.

I would pick more daises".
