Apricot and blue flowers are my favorites. Here in my garden is a single backlit apricot tulip.

Hanging in a Sea of Green

I spotted these tiny seed pods deep within a tree and then softened the image when I got home. They are to scale here.

Forget-me-nots from my garden, tiny and blue, I do like you. Happy Earth Day!

Nice White

One would think that after 5′ of snow in 40 days, nothing white would look good, but here is a nice white. This huge solitary crocus has graced my garden every spring for the last 12 years. I am happy to report that after two nights where the temperature dipped below freezing, the plants I planted survived and there are even more flowers blooming in my garden after one warm sunny day.

Frilly Sunshine

To add to the not like me flowers I planted, here’s a bright as the sun shines and frilly as can be pansy. I shouldn’t mention the cold front and strong winds we are now experiencing, because spring will return tomorrow.

Garden supports in blue and silver hibernating until spring really arrives.

In Progress

I liked the colors, a paler version of the Scandinavian blue and yellow, with its simple lines, and one totally black space. A building in progress.

Spirals Three by the Sea

I like spirals,

subtle colors,

things that look like something else,
and the sea.

Red Star

I have never seen so many starfish. Most were missing a ray or at least a tip, but this red one on the water’s edge was alive, bright, and in a lyrical pose. I liked the armband too.
