Natalie ✨ Back in the simpler times, fancy gifts weren’t a thing. We didn’t crave expensive stuff, just the joy of a simple bike ride with Dad every evening. Life was about minimal needs and overflowing love. Remember learning to ride on bumpy fields with Dad? Even falls turned into laughter. We weren’t focused on what to get, just on being present in the moment, together. From breezy bike rides to wobbly starts, those memories capture the essence of pure joy. Cool air, clear minds, and hearts free from expectations - just love, happiness, and warmth. This picture is a reminder of how cool it felt, back then.

Colour / Absence of Colour: ~WithNothing

Sharing a recent snap of the Absence of Colour Sky with the Colourful Daffodils, depicting a typical British weather.

Abstract “Frames” colorful yet so pale

The scorching heat of the sun is trying to fit in the shadows with the help of the glass window, this symphony of light and shadows and the symmetry of the frames is truly magical to the eyes.

    Shot on iPhone 11 last weekend when I was visiting my parents in my home town. It was pretty the transition when the sun goes down and the bars and restaurants are still turning the lights on… I saw that there were these flares of sun light coming out even at the beginning of the night and I thought why not.

    Last month I went to my village and there is a small hill. Whenever I visit my village, I definitely visit that hill because it reminds me of my childhood, and I feel very nostalgic there.

    And these photos, I clicked there on that evening.

    #withNothing

    Recently i visited dadar chowpaty with my best friend. And the sunset seemed to be much beautiful ❤️ i captured some images with my nothing phone 1 but these 2 are my all time favourite.

    1st image is of the pretty sunset and colours of the evening.

    2nd image is a portrait shot of my best friend a few minutes after the sunset when the sky was verry pretty and there is a sea link and there where lights on it so i got very beautiful bokeh and the after sunset lights where also very pretty.

    A barbaric history - A painful incident

    Eyes closed as all are dead, freedom is never free.

    True incidents will open our eyes to love each other rather filling with hate and jealousy….

    @“Natalie ✨” I came across this Amaltash (Cassia fistula) tree in full bloom while I was out on an evening walk. Felt that it suits this month’s theme well as it as both color (the yellow bloom) and the absence of color (the dark night sky). Shot on my Nothing phone 2a.
