Another goal of mine this year is a get my butterfly shots to look more on the artistic side. So instead of trying to capture an extreme closeup capture and every detail I am shooting more wide open to get a better bokeh. Also trying to create more of a scene with them. So I hope I did a good job with this one. :)
I hope everyone enjoys this image! :)
The azaleas were in bloom when I visited the Elizabethan Gardens on Roanoke Island this past spring.

Recharge Area:
Only a few successful traces have led to Greer, from the northwest near Pomona, and the south in the immediate area. Much remains to be discovered about Greer hydrology.
Interesting Information:
Greer Spring flows from two outlets 300 feet apart at the bottom of a steep ravine. The branch drops 62 feet in its 1.25 mile run to the Eleven Point River, one of the steepest gradients of a major stream in the state. The water is so powerful that boating is prohibited. The branch has been the site of two deaths, one of a boater prior to 1932 attempting to canoe the waters, and the other of Lewis Greer, son of the prominent mill builder, who was knocked to his death on the rocks of the branch during mill renovation in 1884.
Brief History:
Homesteaded by Thomas Simpson in 1845. Samuel Greer and his father purchased 40 acres in 1859, and had a mill operating in the gorge by 1860. While the younger Greer was serving with the Confederate troops, other Confederates burned the family mill. Mill was rebuilt after the war, and expanded in 1870. Because of the steep grade, oxen were trained to haul grain up and down the hill without a driver! Increasing demand for milling, but no room for further expansion forced Greer to rebuild his mill 3/4 mile away, atop the ridge, and convey power by a series of cables. Around 1900, Greer (then called Big Ozark) was thought to be the largest spring in the state. Milling ceased in 1920. Property was owned and used as a family retreat by Louis Dennig family, 1922-1988. After efforts to establish a water bottling plant, property was sold to U.S. Forest Service in 1993.
Ownership and Access:
U. S. Forest Service. Day access by hiking only along a .9 mile trail, signed on Missouri Hwy. 19. Area surrounding and including Greer Mill for exclusive use of the Dennig family until 2013, and the old trail is CLOSED.
Ruth Spring is one of the many springs located along the Suwannee River, but it's considerably more under the radar than many of its brethren. Located near Troy Springs State Park, it is accessible by land, but only to those willing to take a couple unmarked dirt roads to get there. Shown here in the midst of winter, its deep color stood out well against the red and brown backdrop.
Springing rebirth is going on in the garden, although our Belgian Easter has been rainy!!
*** Hope, you have had a wonderful Easter Day!!
Early flowering blossom on the tree outside my house. I was standing rather precariously on a step stool to take this, holding the thin branch in one hand and the camera in the other. It took a few attempts to nail the focus!
Echeveria flowers take different forms, this type would fit in the shepherd's crook style due to the distinctive shape.
I have 2 with yellow flowers,
This one was from 3 years ago taken with my Nikon D80, Nikkor f/1.4 50mm lens.

They start to bloom now. I very like that time of year :) It's only a pity, that it is so fleeting...
