If I’ve said it once I’ve said it a million times, Spring happens too quickly. In my effort to enjoy it all it becomes a mad dash to keep up with it and not miss a single flowering tree or blooming bulb plant. And this spring has been particularly bad because the early rush of warmth forced everything to accelerate.
I took this photo of magnolia blossoms yesterday afternoon on our way to have lunch and get groceries, and when we walked past it a few hours later these flowers were more fully opened. It happens that fast!
You’re so right. We are also so pressed for time and then while trying to get our gardens ready for the season, we alomost miss out on the whole reason why we do it. The phrase stop to smell the roses should also say “Stop and smell the roses, and the lilacs, and the lilies, and the, etc.”

Pretty, pretty. I think pink must be Mother Nature’s favourite spring colour.
These look like candle holders to me. I can imagine tiny votives in the centre of each.
Thanks for sharing this image. I love the soft focus so much.
How beautiful. :) I agree with you — it seems we’re in such a rush for spring to come, and once it’s finally here, we’re screaming, ‘Wait, I’m not finished yet!’
