ZIZO

Time to join with HELENA'S weekly photographic meme ZOOM IN,ZOOM OUT.

After having been stuck indoors  last week with the dreaded lurgy, l enjoyed a walk round the garden. I am always amazed at how quickly things start to grow at this time of year.

ZOOMING OUT


the apricot tree .....which looked like this a few weeks ago:



ZOOMING IN


...and on closer inspection I discovered the first fruit!


The sun has been shining here this week and there's some real heat in it now...... I'm hoping it's here to stay, but there's bound to be a few more April showers yet...just hopefully not full of Saharan sand...I'm STILL trying to wash the terraces clean!

Thanks for dropping by!
Take care of you

  6. Great capture! Our trees are finally getting buds on them and the grass is mostly green now. Maybe we'll see some blossoms in the next couple of weeks...
