can you feel it?

spring is just around the corner
so I've been told
{although under my breath I'm still bitching out winter}
and
to help myself
appreciate what's coming in a few weeks

I'm shooting
GREEN
and
playing over here
~~~~~
oops
camera lovers don't panic and think there's a new way to actually take pictures
that's going to help save our planet
the way taking your own shopping bags to the grocery store does
{hint hint}
nope
we're just all finding things
green
~
taking pictures
and
hopefully lifting our "living in antartica hearts" out of the sludge of winter
and
into the tender warmth of spring
"I feel my boots trying to leave the ground, I feel my heart pumping hard. I want
to think again of dangerous and noble things. I want to be
improbable beautiful and afraid of nothing
as though I had wings"

  3. You would just love where I live I think. It's raining today, but the temp. is 62%. Everything is budding,about 3 weeks early, I might add! I am surounded by Nut & Fruit orchards. Almonds, Peaches cherries & walnuts...Oh and grapes. As soon as it quits raining, and if light permites, I promise to talk a walk around and shoot some pictures of my own to share with you. I think you'll enjoy them(I hope you'll enjoy them). I can't make winter any easier on you or more fleet footed, But I can share some of the splender that is my home ground.

  7. Your indoor green is so much lovelier than mine. I just threw out two more that didn't make it over the winter. But soon...!
