Pairs: Open and Closed

  • by

I had a doctor’s appointment this morning. It was a bright, sunny day so I asked Tracy to drop me off at the doctor’s office so I could walk home. I hoped I would find some inspiration for Pairs since I hadn’t prepared anything in advance. It’s just beginning to look like spring might arrive here. There are a few snowdrops, some tiny yellow flowers, and crocus. We’ve never had crocus in our yard, but have decided that will change next year. We’re planning to plant bulbs under both of the trees in our front yard. I just love them. I walked by some pretty purple ones under a tree, and then about three threes ahead there was another group of three. The first ones were open and the second group was closed. Here they are:

Another block or so down the street, I came to this cluster. They seem to be a smaller variety, but what caught my attention was the wonderful backlight.

You can find other Pairs at Helena’s blog here. Today she has a beautiful pair of bright yellow flowers.

  1. beautiful deep purple – I love to see them appear out of the grass in spring – and yes beautiful back light

  2. Beautiful photos Karen. We are dying for cooler weather whereas you are really looking forward to the warmer months! I loved the post with Sarah and Caleb – I completely get her want to do more “masculine” pursuits, I want to learn how to use these tools as well. Love the 3 generation photo – Caleb will be tech savvy in such a short time.
    Oh, and your gold card is just divine
