[Theme] In search of spring, 2016

[BW]

After visiting Krakow, Poland last week I understand where spring is. Here its nonexistent for the time being. I decided to embrace winter for now, so today the skies had to come out of summer storage

The first picture is from a park in Krakow and the other two is from todays climb. The ride down was as always the highlight

@BW, that is really in search of spring !

Here we have blossom erverywhere ! (with the Helios 40-2 1,5/85)

Arend, those are nice! Especially the white one!

Beautiful Børge and Arend !! 

Because of the cold spring-weather the magnolia's last exceptionally long...

Here a white one.

I saw Magnolias all over the place in Poland. Every garden had their own variety. I wish I could get one to grow here, but that might be far fetched. I love the way a Helios render a scene Arend. I treated my self to a couple of 58 f2 in a small shop in Krakow. They set me back 20 silver dollars

All hail the spring

We like to share and let some of the heavy snow showers pass, to make our neighbors happy

A sure sign of spring, the blood spewer (Timarcha tenebricosa) is back, on its favorite dish

April at it's best, between sun and snow I was able to capture these

Ah, snow  - I miss this stuff, we had none this winter. Nice captures, make me 'want'.

Oef, luckily not that cold here 


Rapeseed is doing well ...

[BW]

Thomas, the "Forgetmenot" are a couple of months away here. The same goes for the Rapeseed. Hopefully things will turn to the better here as well. In the meantime we are enjoying the great outdoors.

Oh, wow, what a view. Thank you.
I need to push 'winter vacation in the great north' up the list. Or more presisely 'vacation in winter time with a good chance of snow'.

Thanks Anirban.

With the Chestnut opening up, spring has really started
