Floral Love

That short period of sunshine and warmer temperatures obviously was all, nature needed to show off her beauty...

And I'm really glad, I managed to get out for a walk before the cold and rainy weather set in again.

Today, I'm sending out love into the world with my flowers - there is more floral love over at Mona's.

Flowers For The Weekend

I couldn't resist taking a photo of these - looking at them makes me forget the rain and I can pretend it's really spring.  And it gives me a chance to link up to Mona's Floral Love, where I'm sure a lot of wonderful flowers are waiting to be admired.

Have a wonderful weekend!

Texture Tuesday - Or Rather Wednesday

Just as last week, this is a short post to thank you for all your kind words. I'm so sorry, I haven't managed yet to answer you individually, but I'll catch up on you soon, as at least my eyes are on the mend!

Late as almost always, I'm also linking up to Kim's Texture Tuesday with - yes, you guessed right - another tulip image...

I processed this photo with Kim's textures "Sybil" (one of my favourites from the Downton Collection) and "Havana".

Have a wonderful week everyone!

Weekend Flowers

Just a quick "Hello" from me for the weekend with some flowers for you!

I make this so fast, as I have to limit my "screen time" (my eyes joined my sinuses on the infection part...), which unfortunately will delay my visiting your blogs a bit, as well.

Nevertheless, I'll be linking this photo to Kim Klassen's Texture Tuesday (I used Kim's texture "Anna" here) - late again, but I didn't want to miss it.

I'll link this also to Mona's Floral Love, a new (at least to me) link party for flower lovers - can't wait so see all the beauties there.

Have a wonderful weekend everyone!

Still The Same

Still no sign of spring here... still that nasty sinus infection with headache... still tulips...

What's new, however, is the colour of my tulips.

Yellow and orange red are normally not my first choice of colour, but I must say that I love the energy of that combination - just perfect for Kim Klassen's "Flower Power" edition of Texture (ahem) Tuesday, for which I added Kim's texture "Sea".

Have a wonderful Easter Weekend everyone with flowers and sunshine and lots of Easter eggs!

On Words

Have you seen Texture Tuesday's theme for this week? It's about "wise words" to go with a textured photo. 

Considering the fact that I love quotes, I thought that would be easy. I went over my collection of quotes, went over my photos... either the quotes seemed random, or didn't fit with a photo, or the photo was meaningless... 

I couldn't make up my mind - and, yes, you are right, when you assume that I'm a bit indecisive. And a perfectionist. To my excuse I can only add, that my head is still in a fog from that sinus infection (still waiting on the medication to finally kick in).

I'm afraid you have to put up with another tulip photo - processed with Kim's texture "Havana".  

Have a wonderful week everyone!

Not Fair

Last Wednesday, after weeks and months of winter grey, spring decided to show up with sunshine and nice temperatures, luring out crocusses and snowbells from under the snow.

Last Wednesday, I woke up to a splitting headache and excrutiating sinus pain. I was in bed - that whole week of sunshine - battling that sinusitis and headache. As nothing really helped, I've got antibiotics now and supposedly I should feel better by the end of this week.

Needless to mention that it's grey and dreary again, with snow forecast for the weekend...

I tried to cheer myself up by linking to Kim's Texture Tuesday, where just a favorite photo either with or without textures was asked for. To be honest, choosing a photo when you are ill and in a bad mood isn't such a good idea... but here it is - another tulip processed with Kim's texture "vintage":

Before I'll make the tour to your blogs, I guess I'd better tuck my grumpy self into bed again and come back later.

Have a wonderful week everyone!
