4 of 5 #naturephotochallenge
After the cold wintry (and a little sad) post of yesterday I wanted to share something that made me feel warm and happy. A memory of a summer past, this one was taken in Maine a few years ago in the garden of a friend. We were just about to set out to visit the wonderful public gardens near where she lived and just as we were about to get into the car, I saw the beauty that was just at my feet. Summer will arrive and with it, all the beautiful flowers and creatures. I hope this makes you feel all warm with the thought of what is to come.
********************
I have been challenged by my friend +Tom Crews to participate in a 5-day Nature Challenge. I have been asked to post one nature photo each day for 5 days – in my case not consecutive. I am asked to name a new challenger on each of my 5 days. Today I am challenging my friend +Janet Patterson to join me in this. Just post one nature photo a day for 5 days. Tag me in it, use the hash tag #naturephotochallenge and nominate someone else on each of the days.

Thanks so much for the comment, +Ursula Klepper – I am so sorry that you have been so sick. Take care and feel better really soon. You need more spoons!
Oh thank you! +Ellie Kennard I had seen it and plussed it but was not able to give a comment. This flu was persistent and I am starting now to feel my energy comming slightly back, but still have to rest a lot.
+Ursula Klepper I posted this partly to cheer you up but I don't think you have seen it. Hope you are feeling better.

Very lovely photograph Ellie.

You are one very bright lady, Ellie. And you are most welcome!!!
LOL +Tom Crews!
Pain of winter? Or pain of challenge? Whichever, you are right. Although I have enjoyed it. The biggest challenge is nominating someone who has not done it, or is not in the middle of it.
And thanks for your kind comment.
Gorgeous, Ellie. The pain is nearly over with :))
