oh boy,the only time I see such radiant flowers here in Singapore are those fake ones at the florist's.And can you believe that you have the real ones over at your side?! I like the white ones,what are they called?
And you are right,I'll probably be able to see these real ones in my dream..LOL:)

Oh how beautiful!!!! I find it so hard to believe that all that snow has really gone and you are finally having some wonderful Spring time!!!! So happy for you:-) We, on the other hand seem to have missed out on Autumn apart from about 2 weeks and have gone straight for winter!!! The Sli fields are thinking of opening a month early cos of the recent downpour!!! At least its only on the mountains and they do look wonderful!!!

When I opened the page, it was so brilliant that it felt like the sun had just come out from behind a cloud on an overcast day! The colors just pop from the flowers to the grass!

Beautiful. Looks like you've given it a soft focus. A great choice, or else my eyes are starting to fail. Heh.

The deer like to eat the leaves of our tulips before they bloom so we get blooms with ugly chewed leaves.

Spring is so cheerful, as you have captured here. Beautiful flower bed of daffodils and tulips. Deserving of a poem it seems. But you are the poet with words and camera. Not I.

Looking at this photo I remember all of your long winter, and I think that now you are happy. I'm too.
