Dogwood at Grey Towers

In honor of my Mom who loved Dogwoods. Happy Mother's Day!
Beautiful color. Sorry your mother isn’t still here to share this day with you.

@lisabell Thank you Lisa. I do miss her, but I am also a mom myself- and now a grandma too- so these roles help fill the void some. Happy Mother's Day to you!

A lovely tribute.

My mom has a special pace in her heart for them as we'll, as did my grand mom. That's why I seem so drawn to them I am sure

A beautiful shot Ann. I hope you had a wonderful day.

love it against the blue sky

oh this is so beautiful! I really like the way the light is filtering through the blossoms. Its a bit of heaven on earth

love the high contrast with the bright white and deep blue sky. The red marks at the end of each petal really make this pop! What a special way to remember your mother by.

Thank you Kerri, Taffy, Janice, Rick, Brian, Pam and Michael! Had a nice phone conversation with both my sons today. And the floor is slowly absorbing the tung oil. Life will be back to "normal" before I know it!

@lfrans Thank you Liane!
@nicolecampbell Thank you Nicole!
@eniaral Thank you Laraine! (Just between you and me- and everyone else who reads this! The original shot was a little tilted and included just a smidge of one of the towers. A little handy dandy cloning took that right out!).

@potsbypam Thank you so much for the fav Pam!
May 14th, 2013

Great shot -- the blossoms jump out of the shot.

Beautiful! Those white blossoms are so gorgeous against that blue.

schucks! i'm late again. but i know you understand, ann. hope you had a good mother's day celebration. partner and i drove northeast to quebec and ottawa so we were away and as usual in hotels the wifi is lousy. but i had quite a good rest. and now i need more.

these dogwoods are lovely. i used to have a dress with flowery prints similar to this. my mother sewed it by hand and i wore it to a dance at the school. i love that you took advantage of that gorgeous sunlight. with flowers, i find that they are best photographed this way. i love this!
