Urban Skies

Looking up at the blue skies above the buildings downtown,



such a lovely contrast to the neutral tones of the buildings - much better than when everything is gray.!

Drive-by

The sky, the concrete, the woman relaxing in the sun...



It was a perfect little moment, & I had to be very quick with the iphone in order to snap it as we drove by.

Cotton Candy Sky

Pink Magnolias, pink cherry blossoms, & fluffy pink clouds in the sky:



Spring is looking awfully pretty this year!

Canopy of Pink Magnolias

I have passed by this gorgeous tree nearly every day for the last couple of weeks, & every day I make a mental note to come back & take photos of it before the blossoms are gone. To my own surprise, I actually recalled this mental note when I had my camera with me & time to pull over & take some pictures.



This is no puny tree, I took this shot from underneath.



Let me tell you, standing under a giant fragrant pink canopy with sunlight filtering through was like experiencing the best bits of Spring all at once!

Lazy Daisies

A new print just made its' debut in the shop!



This print makes me think of laying in the grass on a sunny afternoon with nothing to do but gaze up at the sky & look for shapes in the puffy clouds.

Stopping to Smell the Daffodils

There were no last minute road trips, or hopping flights to seek out our next adventure. It was a weekend right here in our own city, & it was beautiful.



So silly how sometimes we forget what is right in front of us.

Just a Peek

This is what could be seen from a gap in the curtains...



There's blue sky out there! Good thing too, I've been starting to feel a little like a mole. Maybe I'll get some happy shiny Spring shots to share with you this weekend - fingers crossed!

Meet the Real April Showers

April is off to a dark & soggy start here in Seattle:



Looks like it might be a movie weekend for us. If you have sunshine, frolic in it a little extra for me!
