Longer days, warmer temperatures, and flowering trees in the northern hemisphere. A time of renewal, new beginnings.
One for Sliders Sunday.
It's been a cool but gloriously sunny weekend here and Spring is right around the corner. It looked so lovely to be outdoors and yet you couldn't help yourself from wondering, 'but should we even be going outdoors right now?...Should any of us?... Anywhere? I feel fine but what if I'm unwittingly carrying the virus or just haven't shown symptoms yet? I don't want to make someone else sick just because I chose to go out. And what if they carry it to their aging parents or grandparents or to the person fighting lung cancer or.....The possibilities are so many?' And that seems to be where we're at. Uncertainty hovering over each and every one of us. Increasing it seems, with each passing day.....hour-by-hour almost.
If there's any light to be found amid all of this, then I can only hope it is a global mindshift within each of us about just who we are, our individual place and purpose in this world and how we treat those around us, because surely the direction things have been headed lately needs a drastic change of course. And so, this is my ode to the Springtime Blues of 2020. May we be mindful of how our own actions might impact others - not just their health but their livelihood too - not to mention the additional stress we could be putting on an already-strained healthcare system. Please stay strong and healthy, think about whether you are helping the problem or carelessly adding to it, and be there for one another. Sod the stupid toilet paper!

What a lovely smile! This little springtime fairy was very very tired (she has been at the carnival since 6 o'clock in the morning and never did sleep). But as she saw me taking pictures, she instantly began to smile - and nobody that watched it could resist to smile, too!
Was für ein Lächeln! Die kleine Frühlingselfe war sehr sehr müde. Schon seit 6 Uhr morgens war sie an der Luzerner Fasnacht unterwegs. Kaum hat sie gesehen, wie ich meine Kamera auf sie gerichtet habe, hat sie sofort gelächelt. Und niemand konnte ihrem Lächeln widerstehen, ohne selbst lächeln zu müssen.
Another of the blossom trees round where we live in full April bloom, They look so nice - until they blow all over the place in a week or so......

I like springtime because everything is in bloom.
No use of my floral image without my permission.
Thank You.
One sunset, 4 focal lengths. The extremes are, apparently most interesting as entirely different pictures: while wideangle is often a landscape 'default', the closer look explains why telephoto is just as essential for landscape photography.
This river, which flows beside one of our homes, is as important to us as our woodland and the meadow and all of the trees and flowers. It very much is a part of our lives and we all love it.
I like to have shots of various times of year as the geographic location and geological influences make for vastly differing visual effects. These factors provide a new view each day which can be subtle and unique or spectacularly strange.
Our homes are all beside water - sea, river or stream, but this river possibly is the one we all like most.
