I had to stop taking photos a few weeks ago. I wouldn't usually post health stuff but I'm afraid I've had a hemmorhage on the optic nerve on the retina in my right eye and a 'posterior vitreous detachment'. I won't go on but I can see thousands of tiny dots, oil-like streaks and flashing lights in the eye and was told it may be months before things improve, even then not fully.
The consultant said go out and take photos as best you can. It's been a sobering time, a time to reflect on what really matters in life. I've been to the local gardens a few times and taken some shots just using auto focus. I never thought I'd be so grateful just to sit on a bench and look at the beautiful colour all around...the things we take for granted.
Still feeling a bit low but determined not to stay home feeling sorry for myself. I can't spend much time on a screen right now so please excuse me if I don't comment at the moment.
Gotta loves spring...da aminals, the flowers, the breeze.

I'm still not up to the present year, I'm afraid. Just remembering the trips back home from school along the lakefront last year. Riding the kids home from school is one of my favorite things. With spring in full bloom we weren't in a big rush to get home.
This is an early rose, a pinky orange. I have no idea what variety it is (I can only recognise Iceberg and Peace...) and it was already in the garden when we moved in 20 years ago.
Also flowering are a couple of Cowslips, all no doubt very welcome for the insects that have been tempted out of hibernation by the warmer sunshine.
Spring Light, Goor, the Netherlands.
The last remains of mist resulted in beautiful light conditions. So I went to one of my favorite photo locations to make this photo. You will find more photos of the same road in my gallery, shot last winter and last autumn.

Spring is blooming in my Mom's gorgeous garden! Here you can see her beautiful Saucer Magnolia in all its glory & just behind is her Flowering Almond! The yellow one to the right is her perfumed Mock Orange which should bloom in a couple of weeks, if it ever warms up again!

The spring snowflakes are becoming rare in the wild in Germany and in many countries due to the fact that their preferred living place: wetlands, mires, swamps, floodplain forests are disappearing.
In Germany it is a strongly protected plant, already on the Red List of endangered plants.
Another factor that "helped" the plant to get onto the Red List is the collectors who had been digging them up for sale or for their own gardens.
Typical of the plant is that 1-2 flowers can be seen per stem and the white petals have an orange, yellow or green spot.
The entire plant is poisonous.
These plants I found in the Maisinger Gorge, near Starnberg. The area is protected, as a water protection area. That means that any activities that can pollute the groundwater are forbidden. The beautziful little city of Starnberg at the Starnberger Lake gains its drinking water from this area.

Spring is the most beautiful time of year to visit eastern Washington. The Palouse region is full of blooming wildflowers and sweeping green fields. Here, a spring storm passes over Steptoe Butte with blue flowers in the foreground.
