the spring within has come to shower me
with the peace I craved for long.
I'm currently on vacation in the south of my country, but this photo was taken when I was still in Porto. I'm a little bit in love with it, and I might work on a couple of companion pieces. I hope you have a wonderful rest of week! Also, Darling Heart is coming to stay with me for a little while (YAY!) so I'll be a little bit absent. But we'll do our best to shower you with photos.
As I walked back from the Post Office a short while ago I spotted this clump of fungi. An unusual sight in Spring!
We live close to a large urban park in Victoria. Some areas of the park are left in a pretty much natural state. Right now many of these areas are carpeted with wildflowers.
This simple and small flower has an amazing parfume.

Pink Hearts
Little pink bleeding buds
Came out overnight
And in the sun rays
Their hearts sparked to ignite

I love how only letting infrared light in to the camera sensor brings such a different look to flowers and plant stuff.

I wouldn't be a good "Texan" if I didn't post an image of our state flower..:)
Bluebonnets have been loved since man first trod the vast prairies of Texas. Indians wove fascinating folk tales around them. The early-day Spanish priests gathered the seeds and grew them around their missions. This practice gave rise to the myth that the padres had brought the plant from Spain, but this cannot be true since the two predominant species of bluebonnets are found growing naturally only in Texas and at no other location in the world.
As historian Jack Maguire so aptly wrote, "It's not only the state flower but also a kind of floral trademark almost as well known to outsiders as cowboy boots and the Stetson hat." He goes on to affirm that "The bluebonnet is to Texas what the shamrock is to Ireland, the cherry blossom to Japan, the lily to France, the rose to England and the tulip to Holland."
