Happy imagining, Post #6

Happy Monday!

This weekend I found myself imagining a visual that made me happy. I am v. attracted to lean(ish), long-legged gentlemen in white linen shirt and cream trousers -- like Niles Crane in that one episode of Frasier--and I found in my mind's eye an image of a favorite actor in said outfit (with Panama hat), sitting at a draped table in an English garden. His profile sharp against green, this imagined personage stretched his long legs out in the sun and gazed off at distant topiary, and a light breeze ruffled his shirt.

Yes, this is ridiculous, but it made me ridiculously happy as well, just for that moment of imagining.*

Is there an image you can visualize that makes you happy? A place, a plant, an interior, an aesthetic?

I wish you happy imagining this week. :)

*I also thought about ficcing the moment, but couldn't decide which of my characters it would suit best.

I can see any number of people in that Panama hat. Giles. Jonathan Pine. Napoleon Solo (undoubtedly under cover). River Song. ;)

Funnily enough, I can't see Giles in the outfit. It's too establishment for the way I want to think of him!

But Jonathan Pine, yes absolutely! And Jools Siviter. And Mycroft Holmes. All the spies. :)

River would look great in the outfit, too, but oh my beloved Twelve on a Darillium break in white linen -- what an image. Thank you for leading me to it.

That visual is so you! :-)

Heee. I am very, very, very predictable. :)

Hugs, Gwynne!

I think your gorgeous image will keep me going for the week. Lovely Niles is dressed just like Lord Peter Wimsey after a good game of cricket :)

You see the vision, K! YOU SEE THE VISION. :)

Hugs and a good week!

I often wish I was by the sea on a warm (not too hot) day with no-one else around :)

What a beautiful image! Do you like pale sand or rocky drama? Dunes or cliffs? You don't have to tell me, but I always like specifics. :)

Have a great week!
