Creative Exchange


It was raining the whole weekend and temperatures were far too low, and the same was predicted for today. Completely unexpected, the sun made its way through the clouds in the afternoon, so I really had no choice ;-) but to grab my camera and take a little photo walk to find something beautiful for Lisa's Creative Exchange.

Lisa, this one is for you - hoping that you've seen the last of snow for this season and spring is here to stay!

Have a wonderful start into the week everyone!

    Oh Rosie, thank you so much!!

    I am hoping we have seen the last of the snow also. Now if we could just get the temps to go up a bit. Only in the low 20's here today :-(

    This is such a lovely photograph, and I thank you so much for sharing it at The Creative Exchange today.

    Have a wonderful day!

    Sweet little flower of Spring -- I love the tones of yellow in the grass that accent the yellow flower. Hope it warms up there soon!

    How cheerful and hopeful. I remember as a girl my grandmother remarking "the crocus are up this morning" and thinking to myself "who cares?" Now I totally get it. Isn't it marvelous?

    I like the sun's rays shining right through the petals, giving them a translucent kind of beauty.

    Beautiful crocus, Rosie! So nice to see signs of spring everywhere--outside, on blogs, on Flickr. Just amazing stuff I'm seeing lately.

    I want to take a photo walk...but I want it to stop raining first! I have crocuses somewhere, but they weren't blooming the last I checked! Love how you've captured the sun in this photo.
