    Ah good ol' spring! Personally, I find spring overrated and am waiting for summer

    Great shots though! Love the colors!

    First one's a Fav! Any special background or did you just let the bokeh fall where it wanted?

    Real interesting color variations, third photo is well saturated but a little dark. Particularly like the tulip " hanging down " as opposed the more typical upward thrust, may have to borrow your idea, if O.K., if my tulips ever appear!

    Beautiful images. You got me wanting to get out and start riping away with the macro, but if I don't get the yard mowed after work today I won't be able to find a flower in the back yard. Thanks for sharing these with us.
    Don't forget about the Gallery. Are your photos there??

    Re: Spring at our house

    #2 is my fav, Adina...Yes, the sun is shining, the birds are singing and the flowers are blooming. I haven't yet gotten out to get any of the blooming flowers, but I will get some soon. I did manage to shoot my first track meet. I will post a couple of the better ones in the Sports forum. I was kind of nervous because I just wander in to the High School track meet and started shooting..hehe..I only knew one person there, but he didn't know me...one of my past foster sons little brothers was running. He doesn't know me, tho'. hehe..I'm hoping to start shooting a lot of sports and got some good experience last night (and a lot of fuzzy pictures!!!) haha..enuff ramblin'...great shots adina...

    Your vision for seeing beyond the obvious always amazes me. I wish I had your camera's eye. Beautiful shots. All of them.
    Spring ain't so hot here the Northern Cal foothills-LOTS of rain and flooding, mudslides...echh. It's not usually like this, at least not in the five years I've lived here.:-(

    Re: Spring at our house

    Thanks all.

    Okay, I have a confession. These tulips were purchased from the grocery store. I havne't actually planted any yet. There's been so much interior construction, we haven't gotten outside yet. So spring officially starts with the first tulips we bring home from the store.

    Thanks!

    Beautiful. I especially like the middle two.

    Do you have any info online about your kid portrait business? You do that, don't you?

    I have to agree with Chunk, about the middle two. Today is going to be 60's but it doesn't look like the sun will be out. Hopefully this weekend will be better. I can't wait for the roses to start blooming...

    Cheater !

    I plan on crawling around in the mud to bring you the first Central Illinois tulips and bluebells!

    It's a little late to plant any this year I think.
