Hi friends! I am going to keep this short and sweet since I’m not feeling too well tonight.
It hasn’t felt too much like spring around these parts, I still envy anyone who lives in those warmer southern states. We woke up to frost today. FROST.
Fortunately, there is still a lot of spring loveliness despite that frost.
These are blooms from our James and Jake tree (one of our James and Jake trees died. I am SO SAD.) Aren’t the blooms beautiful?
That’s it for me. Now it’s your turn to share.
Please read the guidelines, the most important one being that you link to your YOU CAPTURE post and not your main blog URL. (incorrect links will be deleted, sorry!)
But first:
Spring! Do not adjust your monitors, I seriously said spring again. I’m giving you a challenge within a challenge. Find spring but find it differently this week, seek out different subjects, different colors, fresh angles, new perspectives! Open your eyes and capture something NEW that means SPRING to you.
Happy Capturing!
I love those blossoms on your James & Jake tree! And the grass shot is so warm and lovely!
I hope you feel better soon!
The middle bloom shot is so beautiful.
I love that next week’s theme is also spring, mainly because I’m generic and lazy and all of my photos were of one thing this week, but also because I love spring SO much.
Bleah, stupid frost. I’m sure you must be so sick of it by now! I’m sorry to hear about the mastitis. Hopefully the antibiotics will kick in quickly and beat the crap out of it. Hope you feel better soon!
I spent a good hour getting shots of flowering trees today! I love yours
Oh yeah, and I meant to say that the blooms are really beautiful. LOVE.
The last photo is so neat. I love the way you edit.
Feel better soon!
What a perfect theme this week! ***sigh*** I love spring ;D BTW -we had frost here this morning too! Hope you (and your GIRLS) are feeling better soon.
truly beautiful shots, beth!
I’m so sorry one of your James and Jake trees didn’t make it.
That close up of the blooms is SO lovely…
And yes, Spring is almost done here – Summer seems to already be on it’s way!
What beautiful blossoms! We had snow Monday morning and 70′s today… We have bi-polar spring weather in Colorado!
amazing pics…let’s hope I can do this right.
Love love love your shots this week. Great view of Spring. Hope you are feeling better soon!
These are lovely. Do you use photo shop to edit your pictures? I really love some of the effects you use.
I wish you could teach sometime, your pictures are always so stunning.
Your James and Jake trees are beautiful. So sorry one of them died.
And that grass picture? It’s my favorite. I love the smell of fresh cut grass, it screams spring to me!
Hope you feel better soon.

Wonderful caputures….I especially like the last few. Reminds me of mine this week. How did you tweak that last one? Love the effect.
We had the frost advisories last night as well. Boo! It’s practically May…bring on the warmer weather (just not 80′s-90′s yet).
Rest up!
Spring is a little different in the pacific NW. Great choice. Looking forward to next week.
Your pictures are stunning!!
I love the changes you made to the last one – it gives it almost a vintage feel to it!
Feel better soon!! Boobie infections are tough!!

That’s a crabapple, right? My FAVORITE. I love the smell. I totally sympathize with mastitis. Take care of yourself.
You got some mad skillz, yo.
And I have to THINK now for next week’s shot? NICE!
Beautiful!
To me, Spring is the most beautiful and inspiring season of the year!

Beautiful spring shots. I’m sorry your tree (with sentiments) died. I hate when that happens. And I hope you feel better, too.
Love the one of the grass with the sun in the background. Hope things warm up for you soon!
