Bursting into Bloom

These photos are actually from a few weeks ago, back when I was thinking about photos and carrying my camera around all the time.  Somehow all of that slipped my mind lately, but I still wanted to post the pictures.

Knoxville Views 2013.16

Most of these pictures are of from Knoxville, even though I spent most of the week in Texas.  Flowers were very much on my mind that week and I was fortunate enough to be in Dallas in time for the bluebonnets, as seen in the lower left photo.

 

There was no plan to my photographic choices, just whatever would capture my imagination at any given moment, but obviously I was focused on spring.  Focusing on spring is always good.

    Toronto is very ugly most of the time, but when spring gets going (generally at the beginning of May) and the rain leaves, it transforms. I mean, the ugly is still lurking, but as a contrast to the beauty of the weather, things looks somehow more gorgeous.

    At least you don’t have any snow.

    Lovely photos, Mardel. Thanks for sharing them — as well as so much of your journey. I sense that you are still you (does that make any sense). Know that people from everywhere are holding you G in our/their hearts and prayers. Blessings and peace…
