Yesterday (21st June) we enjoyed an unseasonably calm and mild mid-winter's day with the temperature reaching 19°C (66.2F)
It was still pleasantly warm enough to sit outside with a cold drink after an energetic day gardening, and enjoy the brief but glorious sunset .
Taken at 5.20pm with Panasonic FZ28. Two photos stitched with ICE.
Thanks for looking and for any comments :)

The unusual mildness of the winter reminds me our last winter here - 2 months and 10 days with snow and the average temps around 0 degrees C or slightly above.
This is what I wish to those who dislike cold and white winters:)!
Crazy colours & lighting here, dear agent, crazy and delightful...
