“A hot bath! How exquisite a vespertine pleasure, how luxurious, fervid and flagrant a consolation for the rigours, the austerities, the renunciations of the day.” ~ Rose Macaulay
For those who like words and are curious, vespertine, basically means ‘of the evening’ and yes I did have to look it up but I am definitely adding it to my list of words to try to use more often.

Oooh, I love the colours in this 🙂

That is super sexy, even though it is very subtle. It almost looks like hills amidst an ocean with a bright white sky.

From the same Latin root as ‘vespers’ ~ evening prayers.
A bath is a bit like a prayer, I suppose, in that it’s a way of letting go of all of our small worries. 🙂

That’s a lovely piece of writing, I’m delighted to have learned 2 new words from that! Thanks Molly – your image too is fascinating, I love it’s dreamy, hazy feel, reminiscent of the way a relaxing bath makes one feel – clever!

I love the softness off this and the way that your body seems to melt and disappear into the water at the edge of the picture. It feels so dreamy 😊
