This is the first water lily bloom in my pond this season and keeping the flower company was a cute little grasshopper sitting on a lily pad.  I shot this image with the Lensbaby Velvet 56 and added a little painting effect to soften the image even more.  For me, the softer the better!

Daffodils symbolize rebirth and new beginnings.  They herald in the Spring season with a blast of color that transforms even the most dreary landscape!  It’s been a long wait, but they are finally here!  I have several varieties and am waiting to see if my pink and white ones make an appearance!  Time will tell….

More Lensbaby fun with the Frizzle Sizzle Pansie from the weekend.  The combination of the soft focus rings and my very old Lensbaby 3G (which they probably don’t even offer any longer!) creates one of my favorite looks for flower photography.

I think…I think…I think…SPRING has sprung!!  The garden center had baskets of “Frizzle Sizzle” Pansies and so I had to bring them home to hang on the porch.  They don’t mind cool temperatures and are a splash of color which reminds me that more flowers are on the way!  Here’s a Lensbaby photo from the weekend!  I love the ruffled edges of the petals!
