Michael agreed to a trip to the Mt Lofty Botanic Gardens, today, but on condition that I didn't take any of my regular cameras; it was to be iPhones only.

I needed a break from digital photography, so I'm posting some film shots I took last year shortly before Easter. I'm so excited that spring has finally arrived!
“She turned to the sunlight
And shook her yellow head,
And whispered to her neighbor:
"Winter is dead.”
SOOC except for the crop. Still exploring my love of the pear blossom!!
Another "Helios 40-2 painting" from last Sunday. I just love the painterly bokeh the Helios can produce under the right circumstances. I hope you like it too!
I was hunting for early spring blossoms when I spotted this Girl Tree in full bloom ;-) Central Park, New York City.
The Obersee in the Bielefeld area is an artificial lake outside the city, a lovely place for walking, biking, or just to relax.j
Another cheer-us-up shot from earlier in the year.
I bought a close up lens to experiment and this was an early try with it.
...The grass is riz, I wonder where the boidies is?
Around here, all you have to do is walk out the door for an answer to that. It's full spring ahead in our Ottawa region and the boidies is lovin' it.
To us, the year's first satisfying sight and sound of the Canada Goose is the surest sign that spring is on the way. This happened a month and a half ago with the trails still clogged with snow, when that first familiar faint sound made me stop and bark, and a while later Dad stopped and said "Canada Geese!" Then a minute later he pointed, and a while later, I saw them. American robins followed and it was game over, winter.
I like to play in the snow, and I miss it, but really I take every day as it comes, as I always have, as all dogs do, and make the absolute best of it.
Now if you'll excuse me I need a nap.
"And it was going so well."
What'd I say?

..in a pot in my village this morning... so in amongst the gloom there are always blooms. Happy Saturday friends.
Actually caught me by surprise, I've been so busy. I"m going to miss everyone's snow pictures though. I really love them.
