The Joys of Spring

Spring is my favorite season. I love the new warmth of the sunshine coupled with the lingering cool breezes of winter. The nights that are cool enough for a cute cardi but warm enough for leaving the windows open and listening to the sounds of the first ships of the cruise season entering the harbour. But most of all I love all the flowers springing into bloom all around me. The tulips, daffodils, bluebells, ranunculus, cherry blossoms daisies, jasmine, lavender, hyacinth, lily of the valley, everlasting daisy, poppies, anemone, flannel flowers, wisteria ... I could go on all day! And I have a particular love of photographing flowers. Here are some of my favourite captures...

Isla's Party

What an adorable but cheeky little munch-kin little Isla is! We had such a fun time at her first birthday party a few weeks back and I had even more fun editing a tonne of the snaps I took for her Mummy and Daddy!
