Lagging Winter

Winter colors of Kefalonia
Winter Scenes, Kefalonia




I never lose an opportunity to state that I'm partial to spring and summer as opposed to autumn and winter. In color palette jargon, I'd be a "blue-white-green person," as opposed to an "orange-gold-grey person." 

However, the last few years have been messing up with my color-scheme seasonality.

Summer lingers on for a while longer, making me more tolerant and forgiving of the season at hand. Autumn seems to have totally lost its sense of timing, lingering into the holidays, making me a bit more indulgent to the calendar's indication.

The colors of autumn spilling into winter @Kefalonia
These long transitions are absolutely fabulous. The gray and rainy days—inadvertently interposed between the fabulous sunshine and unusually warm temperatures—become bearable.

Under these conditions, I can venture as far as enjoying a cloudy day or two, or even appreciate the orange,yellow and gold hues around me.

As long as this game of seasons does not spill into spring!
