Creating & Capturing Life's Precious Moments
Something seems to have gone a little screwy and I was not getting my emails? But thanks to a friend who is forwarding me hers I will get back on track! Writing a list seems silly to me in a way, and I am not alone, judging by what others have written. Don’t get me wrong…

Can you believe Spring is in just a few short days? Where does the time go, as the Northern Hemisphere enjoys the tail end of Summer and heads into Autumn, we are just waking from our Winter Slumber and heading into Spring; wildflowers, warmth, sunshine and the hint of Summer to follow.

Such an elegant old fashioned plant, I have not seen Freeshia in flower shops in so long and then I came across these beauties, couldn’t resist a quick Five Minutes with them for this week’s Regular Random. Even got the Macro lens out for the inner stamen shots, so pretty and delicate. ~ Julz
