A glorious capture, Keith!

Lovely fresh green colours Keith.

And with a wonderful creeper!
Lush and fresh image with superb light, Keith

Well captured...

great to see its spring also there
Today in Windsor a magnifique blue sky I saw.......

I love the bright green of new spring growth! The trees are really coming to life now! A beautiful close-up Keith with a lovely blurred background.

Have a good weekend.

The nature wakes up ! In a very beautiful way !

LOVELY, Keith! What a super presentation to appreciate. The catkin is a type I've not seen before though I've seen willow catkins before. Love the "hedgehoginess" of this one! :D I love the diagonal line of the branch and the perfect dof for a soft background and crisp subject details. I also love that that lush green of the leaves has a soft brown bg for contrast. Woot! :) Were you weaving around with your camera to get the colors contrasting? :D Finally, the dried vine stem that undulated along the branch is one of my favorite parts and I dance happily along its path through your picture :)

I took pictures of catkins and pussy willow ?buds? a few days ago...will post them at some point! :) Hope you folks are doing great! We're off on our nearly 6-month trip (w a 2.5wk break in the middle) and having a great time! You are on my mind as I immerse myself in fabulous photography!

Thank you so much for your kind and generous comments as always Janet. I've just finished looking at your most recent post and photos.

Enjoy your time away and take care!

Das zarte Grün des Frühlings. Eine schöne Aufnahme, Keith!
