ZOOMING IN ZOOMING OUT

Joining in with HELENA'S weekly photographic meme:

Wednesday Meme


You may remember me mentioning that I recently went on a walk through the almond groves...needless to say I took a few photographs!

ZOOMING OUT


ZOOMING IN



There is little blossom left now...the almond trees are mostly sporting their green leaves: nature is truly amazing and I feel so blessed to live in this beautiful part of our world.

I hope the recent weather conditions haven't  affected the natural beauty in your part of blogland too much!

Thanks for dropping by!
Take care of you
Alison xx

    So pretty. This area of blog land is more like bog-land at the moment. I can't wait for Spring to arrive!

    Very pretty. What I wouldn't give for a few budding trees right now.

    I've only seen almond trees once in the central valley of California, but not when they were in bloom. Just gorgeous!

    I love blossom! When I was small (and trees were tall), I remember blossom flowering around the time of my birthday in late May. Now they flower earlier and earlier.

    absolutely gorgeous Alison! I'm so longing for Spring now. Despite a three day string of warm days, it still wasn't enough to melt all the snow. I'm tired of all the white and ready for some color!

    Oh how simply gorgeous Alison - soooo pretty. Do they smell nice too? I don't think I've ever been near an almond tree, let alone one in bloom.

    The almond groves are so beautiful! Our plum tree is in full bloom right now. It always goes off before the pear or apple.

    So very pretty, and it must really life one's mood ... I long to be able to live back in Spain one day, and enjoy all the bits of it you bring to us.
