You Capture - Simplicity

Simplicity, Beth's You Capture subject this week, should have been simple but it wasn't.  I even researched it (a little) and still was left floundering.  So here are my versions of Simplicity - right or wrong.

You Capture - Spring

Beth's You Capture subject this week is Spring and it's one of my favorites.  I started with the freshly blooming azalea and found I wasn't the only one who appreciated it.

 Then a walk around the side of the house revealed some hardy geranium blooms.  I love these because not only are the blooms pretty and delicate, but the foliage is really interesting which is good because the blooms aren't all that prolific - at least not on mine.

 The peonies won't bloom for two or three weeks at least but the buds say Spring to me and have a beauty of their own. I wasn't the only one who appreciated these either.


Of course no Spring blog post would be complete without including a bluebird and maybe even some bluebird friends.

  Then yesterday I thought to address the flowers in front one last time.  The first is one of Mr. Right's favorites - the Columbine.
 

 And the next one is a sprig of spirea.  The blooms seem to have lasted extra long this year and I'm glad because it's one of my favorites.

Finally the worst picture of them all, because it was by far the most challenging to capture, had to be included because it says Spring more clearly than any of the others.

There are many other Spring pictures at Beth's I Should Be Folding Laundry.   Go take a look.

You Capture - Flowers

Beth's You Capture subject this week is flowers. I'm so glad to be back participating and it's a perfect week for me to return because when I started my flower beds years ago, I had one goal. Something must be blooming at all times so all my flower shots come from my own flower beds. And, just to prove that nothing's changed, I couldn't pick out just one or two and it wasn't because the pictures are so great - it was because the flowers are:

There they are. Peonies, hardy geraniums, and weigela - probably my all-time favorites.
