1. Finding a sweet spot in the park that was just far enough away from the play area that the kids' voices and the squeak-crash of the see-saw did not distract me, but made a good background.
2. Horse chestnut leaves against a mid-day sky at the end of May. There is nothing so green and blue.
3. There was a mysterious rainbow disc in a high cloud over the park. I've only ever seen one before from an aeroplane.
