Spring Anew and So Fresh! :D


Joy of life is springing from almost all branches and corners of Mother Earth already and what better than to have a challenge that addresses the abundant beauty that Spring comes bearing. : )

Please share your 'Spring' shots of 2012 as you experience your very own Spring wherever you are on Planet Earth. : ))

Looking forward to freshening up!

Good luck all!

Yildiz

Couldn't it be a bit longer, Yildiz?
I don't think we would have enough of a Spring to show by that time.

Hi Dr. Harout, :D

Certainly. It can be much longer.

How about the end of April? Would that be fine for Armenian Spring duration?

I'll change the final date as you suggest.... : ) Thanks for bringing this to our attention.

Hmm, spring arrived in town there indeed, David.

Very cheerful bunch of daffodils against the urban setting. : )


Thanks for sharing,
