poplar growth

Posted by amy (Nanaimo, BC, Canada) on 14 April 2008 in Plant & Nature and Portfolio.

It was a most splendiferous weekend weather wise. I got out in the yard, cleaned out the flower beds, and found my plants were starting their spring fling. The trees are also starting to bud. HOORAY!! But wait... it's supposed to snow next weekend!! LOL Oh, life in Alberta.

Another great DOF. Got to love that blue sky in the background. We have sun forcast for tomorrow morning, but rain for the afternoon. We wanted to take a drive to Victoria and get some good shots, but maybe that won't happen. Dear Mr. Weatherman.........

The lighting and textures in this shot are georgous Amy.
It seems like your having the same topsy turvy weather that we have, one minute it's warm and sunny, next snow, or cold wet and windy. Hopefully Summer should be more like Summer :)

Love the selective focus! The soft color in the background helps highlight the soft texture in the foreground!

It looks like fuzzy spring has arrived there. I really like the way the blue adds power to the composition.
