What smells sweeter or is as lovely than the hues of a lilac bush in the morning sun and budding chartreuse leaves?
Here are five shots of my spring today. Which one do you like best?
A large cup of strong coffee. A hummingbird buzzing in my ear. Ducks honking at the river below. It’s quiet. What a fine morning!

Really great pictures! Good work 🙂
Thanks, Benji! The light was perfect this morning. 🙂
i love them all, but i have learned in my own flower work that the key to a great flower shot is the background. therefore, i would give the prize to the first picture.
Thank you, Bill. Food for thought! It’s hard for me to turn down that brilliant AZ blue sky.
here is a blue sky from seattle: https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=10150397673124989&set=a.10150397669839989.439487.610549988&type=3&src=https%3A%2F%2Fscontent-mia.xx.fbcdn.net%2Fhphotos-prn2%2Fv%2Ft1.0-9%2F224481_10150397673124989_1816277_n.jpg%3Foh%3Dc40bca9d1ee37d78ef441345681e00f4%26oe%3D557456F5&size=720%2C405
My friend, it does not open. 😦
sorry cindy. i have changed the privacy settings. try again and it will open.
WOW! I’m so jealous. What a great shot of the bumble bee and spiky purple flower! You should expand your blog to include photography.
Glad you like it Cindy. It took a lot of tries to get a clear focus on the bee! Ive got all my photography on facebook, if you have a facebook account, I can friend you if you want to see more.
I don’t do facebook, but thanks for the invite.
Spring time!
We are fortunate spring starts early in AZ and CA.
Blossoms .. a short joyous rebirth
then fly in the Spring breeze ..
You are a poet, JC.
I’d go for number three. There’s a lot of the Green Man’s power in that one.
Hi John, that’s my favorite, too. The sun really lit up buds and I like the contrast between blue and green. Thanks for commenting 🙂
Stunning work Cindy, nature is always such an amazing thing to capture in a photograph.
Thank you, Vinnieh! How’s spring over in England?
It’s just starting to get sunny after a few cold days.
These are all lovely but the second to last is definitely my favourite!
The Anna Hummingbird is so lovely.
Oh Cindy, they’re beautiful. What an eye you have. #2 and 4.
Xx

Thank you, Diana 🙂 The sunshine caught their special colors.
But you had to catch the sunshine. Not something every can. =)
It’s a fun hobby, that’s for sure. 😉
If only I could take picture of these in my backyard but it’s actually snowing this afternoon 😦 Love them all Cindy, but the pink hydrangea one is my favorite!
Ah, but it is the same lilac bush! 😉
So glorious. If only I could smell them, too. 🙂
Hi Brenda! We have the screen doors open so the whole house is flooded with the perfume of lilac.
Ahhh. 😀 Glorious image for me to ponder.
I just nominated you for the first ever Official Award of Awesomeness!! 🙂
