Spring Flowers Are Coming!

Spring Flowers Are Coming!

What is it about spring that inspires us so? As often as I have seen it happen, the miracle of spring’s renewal never bores me. This promise of life reborn touches all areas of my life. I am made more thankful for the good I have, and seek future dreams with renewed vigor. Of course, as a photographer I enjoy shooting flowers as a subject. However, there is an undeniable connection between spring flowers and our well-being. It encourages, inspires and motivates. We have all heard the expression “stop and smell the roses . . .” When we do that, our thoughts go beyond the minutiae of daily life, the things manmade, and focuses on what is spiritual and larger than man. Spring, I welcome you!
