The weather forecast predicted cold temperatures and storm for the weekend ahead so I thought I should post a pic of blossoms I took yesterday ;-).
The spring feeling is better, if you view it in large.

When you are lucky, it ends with a beautiful display like this.
Hubby sent me this shot tonight, or for him it was when he first woke up tomorrow morning.. in 16 hours he will be home.
Each Spring to the delight of my eyes there emerge the pear tree blossoms signaling hope and promise for my soul.

Theme: Tis The Season
Year Ten Of My 365 Project
Long day at work included moments all throughout the day of coming out of my office and just sitting by the tree for a few moments. The cold weather, the warmth by the fire, and beautiful music got me through the day and to the weekend...
Hope everyone had a great Friday!
Theme: Tis The Season
Year Eleven Of My 365 Project
Bald Eagle (View Large for detail). Hand held in very difficult lighting. He/she is about to take off- note the raised wings. Taken over a salmon spawning river in a rain forest, dark and mossy. Always a thrill to find the eagles sitting and looking for salmon remains. This one is looking for bits of salmon that might be floating down the river. IMG_9725
Texture: T6 in my free texture set (Free Textures by TCP)
Starting with a picture with way too much detail, I stripped it to its basic forms and lines. Then, using various adjustments and blending modes, added back the color and contrast. With the smudge tool in Photoshop I was able to create the brush strokes (essentially repainting the image). The T6 texture smoothed the look and the canvas overlay in Fx finished it off.
Things wont bloom for another 2 week. But the Conservatory bubbled over with gorgeous plants!! Enjoy
For beauty, for hope, for renewal of life and for joy...
For Narcisa and D, with love...

NOTHING is so beautiful as spring—
When weeds, in wheels, shoot long and lovely and lush;
Thrush’s eggs look little low heavens, and thrush
Through the echoing timber does so rinse and wring
The ear, it strikes like lightnings to hear him sing;
The glassy peartree leaves and blooms, they brush
The descending blue; that blue is all in a rush
With richness; the racing lambs too have fair their fling.
What is all this juice and all this joy?
A strain of the earth’s sweet being in the beginning
In Eden garden.—Have, get, before it cloy,
Before it cloud, Christ, lord, and sour with sinning,
Innocent mind and Mayday in girl and boy,
Most, O maid’s child, thy choice and worthy the winning.

Administration favorite IMAGE OF THE DAY red Hot Capture Group .. May 8 th 2010
I couldn't resist another shot of my Japanese plum blossom.
The fence beyond is typical of North East Scotland (and maybe elsewhere) in being part stone wall, and part wooden and wire in construction. The stones form the base, and the wood and barbed wire sit on top.
Shot with the Meyer-Optik Orestor 135mm f/2,8 vintage lens
Happy Fence Friday - and have a great weekend too ;o)

This picture was merged from 3 single shots taken with the Distagon 1,4/35 at the Leica M in portrait orientation. The higher regions of the bavarian mountains were covered with clouds the most time of the day which led to some beautiful hoarfrost gracing the trees together with the fresh snow. I found this scene near to the summit of Scharfreiter at the border between Germany and Austria.
