“If Winter comes, can Spring be far behind?” – Percy Bysshe Shelley

I enjoy Winter, but only for a brief time. I love reaching for an extra blanket, wearing comfy socks, and pulling on warm layers.  The days are shorter, which is a bit hard to get used to when you love to photograph.

But recently, I have begun to see the first signs of Spring.

The quiet and peaceful awakening of little buds on branches. The promise of starting new.

Green leaves beginning to pop up, even though a chill is still in the air.

And it reminds me that Spring will be here soon enough, my friends.  xo
