Lena and I headed outside to take some pictures. Today is not only the First day of April, but the first day in quite a while that it seemed nice enough to go outside!

Today is the first day of spring here in the Southern Hemisphere. The weather is great for the first time in ages and all of a sudden the trees are blossoming.
Walking through Mt Eden, I happened across an entire street lined with these amazingly colourful trees, such bright pink blossoms amongst all the green and grey.
US Highway 24, above Manitou Springs. On July 11, rains in the area caused a mudslide that streamed down the other side of the road. The burn scar from the Waldo Canyon fire (2012) has left that ground vulnerable to more catastrophes like this.
On a few select days each year (beginning of spring and fall), the sun rises directly in the east, illuminating the Lincoln statue in a warm glow. Just as the sun was rising, the National park Service starting hosing down Lincoln for his spring cleaning. If you know anything about lighting and photography, you realize that this creates a very unique situation as the water accentuates the warm light falling on the Lincoln statue. This is now a once in a lifetime occurrence, as I'm sure the Park Service does not wait for the vernal equinox (and a sunny one at that) to clean off Lincoln.

Spring is always one of my favorite times of year. I love seeing the new greens and all the blooms. It does drive my allergies nuts from time to time, but I would not miss it. Yesterday marked the beginning of Spring and we were out at midday exploring the area checking out the area blooms. We stopped by the Georgetown Sunken Garden where I made this shot with the assistance of my wife holding a scrim to cut down on the harsh midday light. Breaking the rule of not shooting during the middle of the day can be fun when you have an assistant to help you break the rule. :-) Photo by Steve Coyle Photography (www.stevecoylephotography.com)
It was a polytechnic built to help the children of Steelton's trapped "mill class" (largely European immigrants) rise in American society. I'm pretty sure it worked so clap clap.
*What's "Growing in the Gaps" is covered by snow! Most of the snow melted shortly after the sun came out!
I didn't want to post something on this, but I felt I needed something here. My wife of 23 years passed away last month at a hospital in La Jolla. Her room there had a wonderful view of the ocean she enjoyed very much. She was 49 years old. She was very much loved and will be missed by many.
If flickr wasn't the place to express my feelings then I don't know what all my other photos are doing here. Such collections of photos do tell a lot about a person and I couldn't leave this out. So if you thought I've been quiet here on flickr lately, now you know.

The daffodil is a symbol of rebirth - a sign of the new beginnings that come with spring. Daffodils are often found connected with Easter and Easter religious services because of their new birth significance.
It was the first day of Spring and I have been really cooped up all winter, so I decided to see how my knee would react to a short hike. This wasn't exactly what I had in mind when I picked Cascade Brook. This section of the brook was all but buried, but things opened up a little further up the hill. Most of the snow has melted, but nothing in budding or turning green yet.
Oh, my knee survived the hike! Yay!

the cherry blossom symbolizes feminine beauty, the feminine principle, or love in the language of herbs, in Japan the cherry blossoms are believed to exemplify the transient nature of life, because of their short blooming times.
Sakura is an omen of good fortune and is also an emblem of love, affection and represents spring

I visited Patty at Hair Genesis on Thomas Drive today. She makes me look and feel beautiful.
