A Taste of What’s To Come

February 22, 2010 By 24 Comments

I’m starting to feel the coming of spring. I could swear when I was out walking on the weekend, I could smell spring in the air. (Even though as I say this the weather channel is telling me to get ready for more snow!)

These shots are from last summer, but I just felt the need for some greenery today to celebrate the new season that I know is just around the corner!

It’s been awhile since I’ve played in the Monday photo memes, so do check out both Mellow Yellow Monday and Macro Monday for more amazing shots.

Have an awesome Monday!

    It’s very winter here in MI, with at least 6 inches of snow and still snowing ^_^. The picture makes me think of spring and winter. I have like this kind of flower we call it tiger lily. Thanks for sharing!

      Thanks for telling me what kind of flowers these are! I know roses and tulips and daisies and that’s about it. Guess I need to learn more about them if I’m going to keep taking pictures of them. :)

    Yes, I am longing for the spring air too! And the flowers I believer are commonly called tiger lilies, a type of wild day lily.
