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!
...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?

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.
..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.

The last time we saw Crater Lake in the Kiittatinny Mountains of New Jersey was only about a month ago. We had to four wheel drive through the last of the deep snow on the gravel road, past the sadly ruined and empty beaver's pond to find this lake was still covered in a thick sheet of ice. The bitter wind drove me back inside the truck without even a photo. Though the beaver pond was still empty this weekend, we spotted a beaver alive and happily swimming and splashing here in nearby Crater Lake.
