Hi, Tammie Lee -- first, thanks for your comments on Anne's new blog about the self-portrait. As one who has done this already, you know it's an interesting experience!
ReplyDeleteSecond (and more important) -- this is absolutely stunning -- all your photos are. Of course, you're a nature photographer -- but boy! You REALLY are! They dazzle me.
~wishing you a day filled with such beauty as your bud beholds...may you soak up each moment and savor the minutes that pass before you...happy mothers day dear little lady...much l♥ve and light and brightest blessings~
ReplyDeleteHappy Mothers Day to you too. I have images of you sitting doing crafts together. Your photos are beautiful. xxJ

I'm watching cherry blossoms literally turn into cherries from my office window. I've never had such a "birds' eye" view before. This post reminds me of it! Fun!
ReplyDeleteA very apt metaphor for motherhood, Tammie. First the bloom, then the fruit. What buds are these? Have a happy weekend!
ReplyDeleteThat is so true. I'm trying to get out every few days and take some photos of the same buds that will eventually become peaches. We'll see how that goes. Nice shots.
ReplyDeleteLovely harbinger.
ReplyDeleteOh, this is just beautiful!! Thank you for that! Love, Silke

Thank you for drawing our eyes to the ethereal beauty around us - the circle of life. For every fruit there was a blossom. For every blossom there was a seed. For every seed there was a fruit ...
ReplyDeleteLuscious expectancy.

ReplyDeleteHello Tammie, I'm back after the great ICT Disaster of 2010, armed with a new computer but sadly minus many of my photographs. Just starting the rounds of my favourite blogs. Gorgeous blossom shots. Hope your mother liked her card. Have a lovely week,
ReplyDeleteJanice. x
So beautiful. Your photography is fantastic.
ReplyDeleteI hope you had a lovely mothers day. Beautiful images of buds,the promise of amazing colour!
ReplyDelete:) I love the swelling buds of spring that promise the fruit to nourish and delight! They are so beautiful, timid somehow, yet seductively sensuous.
ReplyDeleteYou've captured their verve in these images.
The first is just stunning.
ReplyDeleteoh my! there's lush promise in these plump red buds -- beautiful, Tammie! Hope you had a wonderful Mother's Day!
ReplyDelete(and I'm hoping that third time's the charm; seem to be having a hard time getting comments to stick!)
Dear Tammi! I'm glade you got my little gift!! You have to tell me if the colour of the Flower-Brooch is something like Perwinkle, or not (?)It's blue anyway!! I also have to ask if you know a flower called Periwinkle ? (I'll show you some photos at my blog later)Have a great weekend! Take Care//Eva
ReplyDeleteNothing so beautiful and inspiring as bright blossom bursting into fruit. Wonderful work, Tammie. Love & bright wishes. xx
ReplyDeleteOh wow. Stunning photographs- It's so nice to see that lovely springtime awakening, just as everything on this side of the globe starts to shut down for winter.
ReplyDeleteBest Wishes for Mother's Day,
