The snowdrops are in full flower and the daffodils are long green shoots and just waiting for their moment in the sun. Now is the time I like to look forward to the year ahead and wonder what new things I will see, what the year's weather will be like and

dream of the warmer days to come when fluttering wings will be in fields and hedgerows landing on flowers and the
ferns will be unfurling. The latter perhaps I'm fonder of in photogenic clumps rather than in whole impenetrable swaths of fell-sides as they can make finding a pathway through rather testing at times. All this is in the future and at the moment there are chilly winds Coniston Old Man |
but the only snow we have had this year floated down onto the fells so we had the pretty views without the icy roads.

such lovely flowers! I love that there is still daylight when I leave Mass at
6 p.m.
We are having a lovely preview of spring these February days here in B.C., although the rest of Canada is having to still cope with winter snows and icy winds.
The picture of the snowdrops certainly have more detail. I love the buttercups and the butterfly.
Good luck with the new camera, is it a Panasonic... I'm delighted with the one I had last year for my birthday!
Happy snapping !
Best wishes,

Pretty FRIGID here, but spring is on the way. (I hope.)

I think you're doing a great job with your new camera. The 3 landscape shots and the one of the butterfly are stunning. Blessings!
Hi! I like both snowdrop and buttercup flowers very much. Thanks for sharing.
Lovely series...sorry to hear your lens got scratched. But it's the person holding the camera that counts♪ http://lauriekazmierczak.com/fiery-sunset/
