spring from afar! this is the view so many are having at this moment in time, Not everyone has a garden to sit in or open spaces to walk to even if it was allowed.
So many of us are caged like animals with no escape, our behaviours curtailed by the fickle finger of fait and unknowing partners or parents in the case of younger girls our prison warders. It must be hard not being able to be yourself even if its just wearing those high heels you adore or that little secret stash of underwear calling to you from the attic knowing you can't respond. Your heads spinning in the turmoil and fear for loved ones and your selfish need to be you all taking its toll on your well being.
I am thinking of you all, be strong and you will experience a sunny spring day in the future.

On a spring day, from a distant sky, the rain whispers stories in my ear, stories of fancy drops on faces.
Empty Yonge Street on a windy Spring day. Blue No 17 in Colours of Spring Series. Explored on April 12, 2024.
What a truly delightful place this is ! It looks amazing in Spring colours , I will definitely have to return in Summer to see it in full glory :-)
First of many pictures from here
resubmitting for the distress challenge! I love to distress :-)
I love playing with my Outline Flowers stamp, this time I cut them out and put on a 8.5x11 LO. I also used Old French Writing and Flowering Flourish!

I'm adding this into Lil Lamb's Boutique's NSD challenge on Mothers. This picture always reminds me of Mother's Day...this picture was quickly taken right before going out to a big Mother's Day brunch a few years ago. That's our tradition for Mother's Day, we all go out to a big, fancy breakfast. The kids are usually so well behaved and love getting to act like adults at a fancy party :-)
Another emergency with our dogs - this time my little guy's spleen had to be removed due to a large mass. All this when we were just taking him to get his teeth cleaned & he had his annual senior (he's 14) check-up a month ago. You never know what tomorrow will bring ...
Early Spring continues here with early butterflies on 70o days. Some over-wintered, some are fresh. Most are fly-by's or high above us in trees. We've seen 9 species so far:
Buckeyes
Spring azures
Orange sulphurs
Eastern Commas
Question mark
American snout
skipper sp.
Checkered skippers
White, med-small - either a large Orangetip or Cabbage white
Update 3-1-17: after seeing 2 Orangetips yesterday 2-28-17 it's clear that this earlier white butterfly could not have been a large Orangetip because of the very different shades of white and big difference in size. So it must've been a foty Cabbage White.
No Mourning cloaks, no Zebra swallowtails - yet. Wild blueberries they favor are blooming in the woods. Trees continue bursting out in bloom and fescue is green - it's looking like Easter already.
Thanks for your prayers for my baby. Happy Butterfly Monday!
Beautiful red leaves replace the delicate white blossom for a flleting moment before the bush turns plain green for the summer...
In this shoot I wanna introduce Spring in my Home, camp, flowers, clean colors and trees are some of the elements present in this shoot.
Happy "Last Fence Friday of Spring"! This fence is in front of another one of my favorite local farmhouses. All I really ever knew about this house, other than the fact that I loved it, was that is was supposedly haunted. When I met the owner, I had to ask, and she did tell me that it was haunted when the previous owners had lived there and had a baby. It was haunted by a young woman who would be seen sitting on the porch. She had lost her own child and was there to help take care of the baby. The people that own the house now are an older couple, and since they did not have young children living with them, they had never seen the ghost or encountered anything out of the ordinary. Every night I notice how pretty the light is hitting the fence and the yard in the evening before sunset.
Happy Fence Friday as we turn the corner and head into the lazy, hazy, crazy days of summer!
not unusual to find nice views around the hills, near my town. It's spring time!
No post processing, I used the polarizer filter.
Viale primavera
non ĆØ difficile trovare dei fantastici scorci attorno alle colline, vicino Padova. E' primavera!
Nessuna elaborazione, ho usato il polarizzatore

Today is the Spring Equinox and the sun light is quite beautiful with lots of blossoms.

On a very nice spring evening the most straight forward shot is getting a colour boost and make it looks so great.
February as I write this - what lovely light will be with us in just a few weeks!
Perhaps because of its strongly reflexed petals, this seemed by far the daintiest out of a mixed bag of dwarf daffodils...
Oh, give us pleasure in the flowers to-day;
And give us not to think so far away
As the uncertain harvest; keep us here
All simply in the springing of the year. (Robert Frost)
In the spring, Ten Foot Falls near Eagle Harbor, Michigan, runs much higher than it does at other times of the year. Yes, those are in the same location! (View this one large and on black.)

A spring found by the side of the road. A tulip from the market. Combined on a light table in the studio. A photographic mixed metaphor.
While winter was fairly dry and disappointing, Spring did bring a heavy and much needed blanket of snow to the area ...

After work today I got a message from Nard, "Jo has spring fever; let's go for dinner."
Alright. My stomach isn't up for much so let's go get poutine. Logical right? Probably a bad choice, I'm not feeling great now but whatever I need to start eating meals again. Go big, or go home right?
Anyway, after dinner I pestered Jo to pose for me. Other than the rain starting which dampened her spirit, she was a good sport and posed showing off her adorable socks and hemline.
Jo's "first day" of spring fashion!
Hope everyone has had a good day.

I love Vegas, but there are three things I miss most about Cincinnati, old friends, Madtree IPA, and the spring blooms at Cincinnati Zoo (and Cincinnati Zoo in general). In case anyone is interested, my latest blog is the weekly feature on Innovation Excellence,

I met them when I was looking for the"Colorful" things in the Spring.
They are really attractive even though they are not colorful.
It's Another Spring !!
I use my freind's lens "Nikkor 70-300mm". It is awesome !!
So, now, I'm waiting Spring Santa. Do you know where he is ?
