Yes, these photos were all taken today! This morning, the first of spring, I went out to shoot the blooms just starting on the forsythia and the purple leaf plums. This afternoon we had snow flurries. I'm sick of the back-and-forth, and yet I can't say I am looking forward so much to warmer weather, what with the ticks, mosquitoes humidity, allergies and outrageous electric bills...drat, I need an eternal autumn...
