It is finally feeling like Spring here!
Well, sorta. Last week was all sun and no clouds, so everyone on campus broke out the shorts and dresses. We all soaked up the sun, and got sunburnt and no homework done. But hey, when the sun comes out, we all emerge from our winter caves in Seattle. It is a holiday in itself.
But then of course, this weekend it poured (perhaps to make up for the suddenly nice weather?). So hey. It's April showers.
But here are some shots I took during those hot, muggy days (I'm a wimp in heat).
These first two were taken during a walk with The Boyfriend. The walk ended up lasting quite long, but the scenery was really pretty (if a bit hot...heh). We walked around a neighborhood nearby campus.
I know this second picture is technically the same composition of a previous one from Easter, but I couldn't resist. I really like the pattern of the shadows from the petals. And I think this new one turned out better than the first :)
You really know it's spring when ducklings come out to swim! This is in Drumheller fountain.
Because it was sunny for such a long stretch with no rain (3 days, oh my! haha), every slight breeze jostled off seeds from the trees on campus. I'm not sure what tree these are from, but they covered all the sidewalks and gutters. As you can see in the background of the last picture.
I didn't see that car in the background!! Oh well.
Have a wonderful week!
Your flowers are lovely!
ReplyDeleteThank you!
DeleteLoved these captures of spring.
ReplyDeleteThe lone seed in the last pic is so much like a poem.
Thank you! That is a wonderful compliment to receive.
DeletePretty blooms. I wish I could say that it's looking like spring here!
ReplyDeleteI visited your blog and it looks like it's pouring rain where you are! The sun in these pictures only lasted a few days, unfortunately. It dumped buckets last weekend and has now settled on overcast :/ oh well!
