SNAP!

My friend HELENA has come up with another great photographic meme for 2016.....titled SNAP, the idea is 'to share a set of between 2 and 4 images that have a visual link such as colour, shape or subject that form a photo essay (or anything else you care to share as a visual set' 

 Like many part of the northern hemisphere, Spring is coming early in our valley:



.....which means the almond blossom is starting to appear...it's sparse at the moment, but give it a week or two and it will be in full bloom.

Thanks again to Helena for coming up with another clever idea.

Thanks for dropping by!
Take care of you
Alison xx

    Oh your Snap foursome gives me a glimmer of hope for spring. Are almond blossoms as fragrant as their fruits (nuts) tasty?

    Lovely photos. We have blue skies today, but it was my second sub-zero college run of the week. I'll be very happy when Spring is on its way.

    I always think "almond blossom" is such a lovely phrase..

    That blue sky looks good from here

    That is going to be lovely. I always remember an almond tree in the grounds of my school.

    Love seeing your early spring pictures and shocking to know it's mid-January. When does this normally happen in your area?
