Spring is here,
Theeeee sky is blue.
Whoa, whoa-oooo!
Birds all sing,
As if they knew…
This week’s challenge is something I am sure most of us are very excited about… SPRING! (Sorry to those who are stuck in the arctic.) I haven’t actually started my spring planting and our yard is still pretty brown, so I had to borrow some flowers. Unfortunately, the university hasn’t planted the big to-do in the ovals yet. I will have to revisit this when they do. I love it when the flowers come out! Last year they did a special planting for Oklahoma’s Centennial.
How cool is that!
I did find a few lone flowers outside my office.
I wasn’t kidding when I said lone.
We do have a fabulous Bradford Pear tree in the front yard. I love Bradford Pears. Our neighborhood has tons and they all bloom at the same time! When I win the lottery I want to line my driveway with these.
I love the bright blue sky peaking through. It really makes you feel like spring really has arrived!
I wonder if the weather is going to be nice this weekend… I have a $100 Lowe’s giftcard burning a hole in my pocket. I love spring!
Be sure to check out all the other great spring pictures over at EmilyPie!
Ohh these are so beautiful! The 2nd to last is my favorite. I love how blue the sky is!
Ok, I have GOT to buy one of those cameras! Your pictures are always so great!
Ooh! Love them!
What kind of lens did you use?
I’m so jealous. It’s still all brown and yucky here.
Lovely images! I was just up in VT with 4 feet of snow…I needed to see these!
Arctic? Try INDIANA. Gah, I loathe this state. I truly believe flowers don’t exist anymore.
GREAT pictures! I love them! They capture SPRING perfectly. Wonderful job!
Ohhhhh, I *LOVE* the photo of the Bradford pears. It’s gorgeous. Do they smell divine too? I’m soooooooo jealous!
