The Gladdest Thing

I will be the gladdest thing
Under the sun!
I will touch a hundred flowers
And not pick one.
~Edna St. Vincent Millay

Here are a few more of the gorgeous spring photos I've been capturing...I can already see the beautiful pinks and purples peaking (and starting to fade) in our area as I drive around running errands. It has been spectacular for the past ten days and I will miss these spring colors! But, at least summer will bring many more flower opportunities.

    That second shot is GORGEOUS! I love the colors in the last photo, and the processing in the first! A lot of stuff around here has faded as well. Ready for the next round of pretties to show life.

    The shots are so beautiful - the last one made me think you were in my yard (except for the pink blooms) because I have red maples that are simply glowing red in the sunlight too! Lovely blooms all!
