Thanks! It's pretty brutal out there this morning. I actually like winter just fine but when I was going through my photos I found a few from other seasons!

On a cold, snowing & blowing Michigan winter day like today, this comes as a nice relief of what is soon to come. (but not soon enough!)

Great capture!

I can't think of much that's happier than a cherry orchard in spring. I can imagine myself right now standing there in the warm sun. Thanks, Andy!

FRIENDS are inviting you to join them and add this wonderful photo to their group.

wish it would hurry-any groundhogs up there!

farlane says:

Hope you waited - it's still nutty out there. It's so late in the week, you might as well stay the weekend.

Thanks, I like this kind too - gives you the sense of taking a moment to hear the bees buzzing.

Definitely, Kathy & Diann

-17? You need one of my July and 90 degrees shots! I remember those kind of temps from Wausau - brutal.

Pipe down back there - we'll get there when we get there. ;)

I'm not gonna believe your eyes ever get sore, Ralph. As far as I'm concerned, they're made of diamonds ... or are those just cheap plastic lenses?

Thanks j - age doesn't bring all that much, but it does bring an understanding of the turning of the earth. I saw January 30th this morning ... then 2008. I'm pretty sure I was supposed to have a flying car by now.

It might, but it's 100% natural. One of the e-500's strengths is bright sunlight.

You're welcome. When I saw it I thought I better share it sooner rather than later.

It better not come too soon. I have one of those White Gold Ski Cards with a bunch of punches left!

You're welcome. It's one of the happiest times of year for sure.

Thanks and Thanks!

It'll be a challenge for sure - I should post the shot of the snow that has blown under the back door.

Where's Walden? says:

Beautiful! I love the dof here. Plus it makes me feel SO much better, as long as I don't accidentally look out my window. Brrrrr!

farlane says:

Those groundhogs better be seeing their shadows.

Glad I could help!

Brooke Pennington says:

I have to admit it, I am a winter junkie. Always have been, always will be.
That being said I think I am beginning to look forward to spring a little more than usual, especially after seeing this shot.

farlane says:

I like winter too. I don't find it as easy to get out and about in winter though and so I'm chafing for the return of biking and hiking.

(and thanks n/j/p)
