Beauty in Spring

Taken by my spouse with his 200mm macro and old D4. After my accident with that remarkable lens--and repairs by Nikon are good, but I almost could have purchased a new one for the same price--I do not borrow this rather dear lens.
Slight crop. Maple tree that we did not have planted.
Pink pine cones decorating a Blue Spruce tree in my backyard. Have a great day! Happy Texture Tuesday!
Thank you for your visits, faves and kind comments.

Transforming this mushroom-image, into this one. It was fun ;-))
HSS everyone!
I'm enjoying seeing the new growth in my wife's garden, including the grape hyacinths springing up through the ivy.
A walk in a local wood, the bluebells carpet the floor in a blue haze.The penetrating light illuminating the tones of blue and the fresh new growth of the trees.
You are traumatized, devastated and immobilized by the awful experiences that still have extremely debilitating effects on you in the present moment. And you work so hard, taking tiny little steps to keep reaching for growth even though it feels impossible. And that is amazing. You truly are fighting for life.

This is an in-camera double exposure I took back on June 13, 2021 while out in our yard at sunset, taking pictures as a way to try to cope with the difficult experiences and symptoms I struggle with each moment of each day. I was thankful for my time outside and the in-camera double exposure experimentation I was doing—it was helpful to have some moments of focusing on this positive, energizing activity and helped me make it through that evening.
Don't you just hate it when your vegetables go feral!

HCT!
I will be honest when I say this image was not planned out, nor was much time taken over shooting it.
But there is something about how it captures the melancholy dusk feeling, and draws your eye back into the tower shapes in the background mirroring the foreground which I found very interesting, and wanted to share.

Went out quickly when the sun showed itself briefly just after the Alert Test this afternoon - I was looking for something yellow , but found something pale green . I am not sure what type of tree is coming out here but it still caught my eye !!

Fiddleheads or fiddlehead greens are the furled fronds of a young fern, harvested for use as a vegetable. Left on the plant, each fiddlehead would unroll into a new frond (circinate vernation). As fiddleheads are harvested early in the season before the frond has opened and reached its full height, they are cut fairly close to the ground. Fiddleheads contain a compound associated with bracken toxicity. The fiddlehead resembles the curled ornamentation (called a scroll) on the end of a stringed instrument, such as a fiddle. It is also called a crozier, after the curved staff used by bishops, which has its origins in the shepherd's crook.
At 2000 m these golden Larch trees stand out in the late afternoon fall sunshine, above the normal tree line in rocky, inhospitable landscape. In addition to their unusual habitat and location, the trees in this forest also have the distinction of being the oldest 'Old Growth" trees in British Columbia, nearly 2,000 years old. The largest tree in this ancient forest is 32 inches in diameter.
