Okay it is on now, 95 degrees Thursday 3/26/2020, more day light than dark now so winter is a memory now.

Dogwood Spring is one of five springs available for swimming at Ginnie Springs, a campground located outside of High Springs, FL. With its multitude of swimming holes right along the Sante Fe River, those looking for water activities have numerous options available. Overnight visitors have the ability to camp directly alongside the springs, which is certainly a benefit to campers though perhaps a detriment to those who want pure scenic quality.

 

Though Ginnie Springs on its own is a virtual spring mecca, it is but one location amongst many spring-based attractions just along the Sante Fe River, which runs northwest of Gainesville. Even more can be found along the Suwannee River, which takes in the Sante Fe not too distant from Ginnie Springs.

This plum tree is outside the fence of my garden,

well I consider my whole yard one big garden:-)

Please view large,

I love the background lighting in this shot. It really brings the photo alive. I have been getting into using my 50mm lens a lot lately and have been getting some amazing shots with it.

 

Next lens on my wish list is the Carl Zeiss 24-70mm f2.8 followed by a new camera body... the Sony a900. Cant wait :D I think I will have to check with the wife first

Its spring time here in New Zealand, even though its Fall in the northern hemisphere.

 

Flowers are blooming. Bees are buzzing around, and the air of fertility smells so fresh. Surely the Spring Goddess is busy :-)

 

Here is a capture, that is witness to this wonderful season.

Beautiful spring morning on Ham Lands, Richmond, Surrey. April 2016

Liked the way the branches and clouds were reaching up and out.

 

The Grand Prismatic Spring in Yellowstone National Park is the largest hot spring in the United States.The vivid colors in the spring are the result of microbial mats around the edges of the mineral-rich water. The mats produce colors ranging from green to red; the amount of color in the microbial mats depends on the ratio of chlorophyll to carotenoids and on the temperature gradient in the runoff. In the summer, the mats tend to be orange and red, whereas in the winter the mats are usually dark green. The center of the pool is sterile due to extreme heat.

Mr. and Mrs. Photographer were out today and came across this spring grizzly digging up roots along a creek bed. The bear looked rather healthy after waking up from it's long winter nap. Shortly after this photo was taken, the bear disappeared into the dense brush.

Late Spring flowers.

Besides the eye catching red Gulmohar/Krishnachura and Peacock flowers the yellow Amaltas flowers (also called Golden shower tree or Indian Laburnum; Xonaru in Assamese and Ngaingaw in Mizo) are now in full bloom adding colors to the surroundings.

In the neighboring city of Shillong the Blue Jacaranda flowers/ Neeli Gulmohar, posted in the comment column below, are quite a welcome sight at this time of the year.

And full of bitter summer, but more sweet
