I sit in my garden at night, but with my clothes on. Until this year, I have not particularly enjoyed "the garden at night" thing, but this year it's working for me. I need some kind of ghostly white alabaster statue to keep my company.
"Once, when I was a student, I went for a walk with a girlfriend around the city suburbs at 2 am. We strayed into the high-hedged gardens of a convent where it was pretty inky-dark for a town, and we managed to lose physical touch with each other going through a narrow tunnel of hedge. I crossed the next open space in absolute darkness, arms forward like a cartoon sleepwalker, and suddenly found myself torso to torso with Mary Mother of God. She was cold, white, and just--just--visible in the dark. I was terrified."
--Stephen Anderton, Ubran Sanctuaries: Peaceful havens for the city gardener.
It's rather nice to walk in the woods at night especially when there is a full moon. It's peaceful, quiet & rather meditative. I once enjoyed it very much.
Very nice photos, particularly #2 and #3. The monochromes make it look like a silk screen design. The winter garden at night makes me want to go inside, but I do like the summer garden at night when the heat still wraps you with its blanket. I hate cold weather and dread the coming season.
