Thanks for commenting on my crocus (or is it crocuses or croci?) shots. I am so very excited that Spring is coming into my world once again. I have to admit that I bought today's Lenten Rose. Tom is planting it now. It is a beauty - hard to get a shot in windy Cincinnati today.
I need color back in my life - like I need flowers. They make me smile, heal my heart and feed my soul. I am not waxing poetic - just telling the simple truth of my world.
It is a good way to honor the season of Lent with this gorgeous flower now blooming in my garden. I know that the word of the day is bunny. I have a family under my neighbor's deck. But they won't come out on command.
a beautiful story Cathy its suppose to be Spring here in the uk no chance of that yet , cold wet , lol just wondering what Easter will bring us in two weeks time we will see , fav photo
Stunning shot, Cathy! The light coming through those gorgeous petals is what caught my eye, then the detail in the center drew me in. Fave! I feel the same way you do about flowers. I've been struggling this winter to find alternatives, to open my mind to other types of photography and have to admit that they don't feed my soul the way that flowers do. sigh!
@timandelke Really struggling. I'm just a happier camper out back with my camera. We are to get more snow today - but it looks like it might be a lot less than they said - and thunderstorms tomorrow. Ahh, almost Spring.
Thanks to all of you for your comments and faves on the Lenten Rose. It is such a gorgeous flower. I sure hope it lives as now we ar to get snow.....
