Spring Teaser


Yes it is a cherry blossom! I found these this morning. My three luscious cherry trees have begun to blossom already. Maybe last weeks cold and rain was what they needed.

I love that picture! Did you use a close up lens, macro lens, or long telephoto/zoom?

Elizabeth Golden said...

Kathy I used the macro setting on my camera. I love my camera.

Oh, this is so nice! I am waiting for the spring so much, but I'm afraid it will take a while here - we have two feet of snow on the ground, and more is coming! But thank you for giving me hope!

As much as I love snow, I've got to admit that this photo is quite the teaser! We're covered here in the Foothills, with more on the way. Spring seems pretty faraway right now. Thanks for this lovely reminder!

A lovely reminder that spring is just around the corner - takes a little longer here in Minnesota!

How beautiful! Cherry blossoms always remind me of home, San Francisco. I'm in Colorado now.

Thank you for stopping by my blog and entering my OWOH giveaway. I hope you'll be back again, soon!

I love your blog - you have one of those beautiful, generous blogs where you share images and techniques. I'll be back!

How I wish that blossoms had a chance here in Germany - but they haven´t ... it´s one of the snowiest winters I´ve ever seen, and I can´t believe that it will be spring one day.

Like many have said already, we're months away from anything that resembles this. Enjoy it and keep sharing. Lorrie
