WOW…DID I NEED THIS. My senses as well as my spirits, are down for the count. Nature is the only answer at this point. I just came from the Park seeing the daffodils who seemed to perk up in the rain after being a little droopy. The yellow of your flower matches theirs.
Uh, the definition of one of my favorite words? Plush? Yeah, when you look it up, there should be this image staring back at you from the page, I tell you what. Because THAT is what plush looks and feels like right there. HOW did you get that yellow? I mean, I know nature made it that way, but you capture it. That way.
And not for nothing, but then the green? Wow. And then the buds . . they look as if you painted them on!
Plush, eh? I have to tell you that is high praise indeed for this cutie of a crocus. It was pretty much that shade all on it’s own. I might have fixed the lighting but minimally.
I loved the green leaves of those lilac little muscari (mini grape hyacinths) that seemed to be placed just so.
Honestly, the dead brown leaves as backdrop really makes the whole thing pop, dontcha think?
Dear Dale,
This just makes me smile. A blooming good photo.
Shalom and lotsa blooming hugs,

Yay! That was my goal this week. To bring sunshiny happy to peeps. Nature is what keeps on keeping on (even more so as there is less pollution).
You are most welcome for for the cheering up and I thank you for letting me know I succeeded.

Well in this case, more like Pa-lush. Two syllables, that’s how plush it is.
You know when to hold em and when to fold em because you really are the photography expert.
So beautiful! Nature has a magic all its own, doesn’t it?
Yes they do. The perfect contrast.
Love.

A two-syllable plush! Whoa… I’m already stressing out for next week, now.

Nature has been most gracious. She seems to be making an extra effort this year.
Pleased you think so.
Glad you love.
