FANTASTIC.

I'd not mind being a babe in those woods! Super shot, Brattcat.

And yes, we do have a lot of erotic birds in Florida...oh, wait, you said exotic. Yeah, them, too! ;-)

Re your comment on Ocala DP - This operation is being sold. The fence is curving around a race track which is grass and looks so good as it isn't being used much anymore.

What a work of art! I just wish it were hanging on my office wall!

Kate said...

Lots of beautiful foilage there.

It's one scenery of "Midsummer Night's Dream"- I know Shakespeare will be happy! :)

A lovely tapestry of spring colors.

The colors and light are beautiful. Must be warming up in your part of the world. :)

Saretta said...

You should have this shot made into a puzzle...it would drive you crazy putting it together though!

stunningly beautiful

Spring it is.

Sharon said...

I love to see those hints of green and other colors.

To answer your questions, tulips do okay in AZ for just a few of the cooler spring weeks. Right now you see them in different landscapes, but within another week or two, they will be all gone.

Spring time ... fantastic!

Extraordinary beauty of this pastoral image. The silhouetted trees and the light in the background are superb! About your question: Michelle Obama in Mexico City cause a great impression.

Wonderful shot

A lush, poetic photo and caption.

In response to your comment on my site, I do not think that Rush Limbaugh would be at home in Costa Rica. He would not approve of the health care system, I doubt he would agree with the country having abolished its military and put the money into education and health care. I do not know whether it would be easier or more difficult for him to obtain his desired supply of pills. I am delightfully ignorant of such matters.

Marvellous play of light and colours.

Would that I could stand here all day and just enjoy this view. Thank you for sharing the image we would like to be living in. :-)

As the autumn rain beats down on my window right now, I am envious of half the world enjoying spring, but also look forward to six months' time when I'll get to do the same.

Clueless in Boston said...

Very pretty. I love it when the trees are just blossoming and you can still see though the leaves.

Julie said...

Lovely layers n this image, BC. I guess that means that the gardener had a vision ...

slim said...

I really like the quality of light here. You have captured the essence of spring. I hope you are feeling some renewal in your body as you heal.

Bob Crowe said...

Today you have the forest primeval in a rush of renewal. It feels idyllic.

Tash said...

I think we are seeing your best shot for the year, but then maybe you will surpass your excellent self. Stunning.

Yvi said...

So beautiful!

VP said...

This is an image so full of life, the green and the other colors are amazing.

Sharon Creech said...

Ditto what everyone else says. ahhhh.
