happy / spring


L - Nikon D40x 200mm / T - Nikon D40x

The naked earth is warm with Spring,
And with green grass and bursting trees
Leans to the sun's kiss glorying,
And quivers in the sunny breeze.
~Julian Grenfell

I'm so happy to have a blossoming red bud tree this spring. I love the smooth black, zigzag branches and the way the flowers sprout right off the bare stems. / bradford pears are pretty in the spring but has anyone ever noticed they smell really bad? ...and we have a lot of them here on campus. i happy for warm (not hot) weather - picnics in the grass will be happening soon.
