Time to think Spring

in #flowers7 years ago (edited)

I have been extra busy so far in January. Looks to be settling down for awhile. I have so many responses to my posts and new followers. I have noticed a trend on lots of flowers posted in your replies. I love it! I also thank you for them, and for your interest in my blog. So many kind words. I also appreciate your patience when I am slow in responding to what you write and your up-vote (cannot forget the re-steeming).

I came up with the title because my father would always end his letters to me with : "Think Spring" when writing me during the winter!

Here in North Idaho winter is still going strong. Had a temporary thaw, but this morning it is snowing again. What better time to post more flower pictures I have taken. Some are a few years old and taken with one of the first affordable digital cameras. I believe only 7 pixels. Some were taken with my phone. Might be a one or two with my newer Cannon Rebel.

Hope you enjoy. This first one was fromn a plant that my father gave me a few years before he passed. I have not been able to get any delphiniums to grow properly since:

In anticipation of Spring one must include daffodils I may have posted this one before but do like it!

This next 2 photo was taken at Manito Park & Botanical Gardens in Spokane, Washington. I need to make a visit this summer so I can get photos with my newer Canon camera:

And to close out this post I have one of the pretties Dahlias I have seen. (of course for me when I first see a flower I think it is the most beautiful flower ever).

Enjoy...I am still pulling together more wildlife video clips to share. I have a lot to go through and pull out those that are different from previous posts.

I appreciate everyone's support. Steem on!

@r2cornell,
Wow this is amazing photography and I am awaiting to see your videos of the nature around you!

Cheers~

Thank you I appreciate it very much. I have lots of video clips of wildlife, and the surrounding forests and of course my gardens.

@r2cornell,
I am crazy to watch the nature around you! Hope you will post them soon!
Have a great day ahead!

Cheers~

When all the world appears to be in a tumult, and nature itself is feeling the assault of climate change, the seasons retain their essential rhythm. Yes, fall gives us a premonition of winter, but then, winter, will be forced to relent, once again, to the new beginnings of soft greens, longer light, and the sweet air of spring.

Beautiful photo. And great thoughts on the changes of the seasons.

I think it is very similar to hibiscus flower. Here it is very popular in red colour as @optama putting on her hair in the first comment. I have Chaptered this yellow hibiscus few days ago.
