spring unfurling

It is unseasonably chilly here in central Virginia, but somehow spring still makes its way. A buckeye sapling is unfurling its leaves and the crab apple in the far corner of our yard is in full bloom. The geraniums are leafing out (ready for printing yet again) and Trevor, the frog fountain, is waiting for action in his soapstone basin. The fruit trees are blooming as well, both plums and asian pears try hard to attract the honey bees... Thanks to all of you who visited the bloom show, in person or in spirit. The opening went well and the middle room in the gallery was bursting with lushness, flora, and fresh imagery.

  1. Beautiful photos! It's been unusually cold here in the UK too - just when we thought it was turning towards spring and summer it started snowing again!

  2. Oh! You lucky duck! We're unseasonably chilly here, so that means that the mud puddles are nearly frozen over! I love these images! So beautiful!
