Spring is HERE!!!

Finally!! It feels like it has been winter FOREVER. I'm really looking forward to spring! That means more pretty flowers to photograph, nice warm weather, flip flops, capris- all of my favorite things! I got a quick break at work and took pictures of this tree next door to us. Funny thing is I never noticed it until this week!! LOL!! I'm on the hunt for some cherry blossom trees- I <3 those... I even thought about getting one and planting it in our yard. Oh and I will be gone for the weekend, going home to spend time with family but I will be back on Monday!! I am sure I will have plenty of pictures to share. Hope everyone has a great holiday weekend. TFL!!

Not quite as I had planned, it was a little windy out. I hate when it's bright out and you can't tell what it looks like until it's uploaded.

Ahh, it's Springtime!! Next time I will have to get more in the sun.

Isn't it funny how photography makes you notice things around us? These are great shots! Our trees are nowhere near budding, but I have a blossoming tree across the street that I can't wait to get shots of like this - great job!

We don't see much of this around these parts yet, so I'll live through you. pretty blooms and lovely background blur.

Isn't it great when stuff starts popping? It's like it's been dormant for so long, it can't stand it one more second and MUST bloom, all at once. Looks like there are some really cool details in those blossoms, on a non-windy day. Blossoms and wind are a nasty combo.

Love the bokeh in these. Nice to see some springtime!
I don't know if it's just me, Tera, but I'm not seeing the right side of your horizontal photos unless I click on it to see it in a separate window.
