saffron highway












This could be one of the most breathtakingly natural beauties the city has to offer at the moment. A yellow wonderland that will remain only for a moment - littered in exotic ginkgo leaves until the wind sweeps their flimsy bodies elsewhere. My brother and I snuck his (vintage) moped into the gardens today and shot some photographs against this striking backdrop. The mismatch of red and hunter green will always get me along with classic American colors, so a fusion of the two seemed perfect. Luckily we captured enough pictures without getting caught - quite the scandal.

  5. Wow, that's dedication to the blog cause! The pictures are awesome. And on another note, I really like that your rain boots are NOT Hunter's. I'm so sick of people wearing thta brand name sprayed over everything; if anything I think it distracts from the simplicity of the boots. Yours are just right!
