Hi Jayne, Have just taken a look at your blossom pics and they are really gorgeous. I love all kinds of blossom trees and hope to have one in my garden before long. Its just a shame the flower doesn't last very long. Your photos will make those particular blooms last forever though wont they! Hope you are well. Take care. Love Chesca. #####

PS: Hey Jayne, how is it that you were able to write in my G/B in colour? I attempted to try writing the note in an email in colour and copy/paste, but tht did not work....BTW, what is your correct email address? I once had it but since my new hard drive have it no longer? (chara11@aol.com)--->m e

!!!!Hallo Jayne!!!!I'm in process of visiting all my favourite member's..and WOW. This album hit the jackpot. I began writing down each foto that I liked the most, but as I continued on...the list is TOO long! These are so incredibly beautifully taken that every single one I dwnloaded came out gorgeous!. What a professional work you have here. [I'm afraid I may use up too much of my hard drive on your foto's!] What a JOY! Thank you for bring Spring right to my desktop. And, as you mentioned when u last wrote me about viewing in FULL SIZE and MAXIMIZED -- Whoa, have you viewed any of your own foto's that way? They are just awesome. Thank You, Thank You, it's been too long my friend. Soon will I return to see what else you are up to! So far, I've only got one Spring 2006 album up, as my husband had his knee replaced and that's all-consuming for a wife! The fruit trees here are blooming everywhere and I've not had a chance to spend even a day with them. Hope I can before they disapeer. Isn't Spring Great!? Take Care my Friend, Barb

Hi Jayne, Wow, love the latest, The Daffs are beautiful and the Plum blossum and the Apple blossums. The park is fabulous , What a lovely place for a stroll I think my favourite pic is the 'Daffs in the Park' definitely a desktop item. If this beast will let me I'll download it as soon as I post this. I don't have anything new at my sites so don't worry too much about answering, although I love to hear from you. Love and Hugs, say Hi to Oz for me Chris and Jay

Hello Jayne: I am rather new @ this photo taking & entering it on the web. U are an inspiration. Maybe soon I will get up the courage & try my luck.Your daff's are so lovely with the beautiful sky & smatter of cloud. Tricky shots, pretty nimble arent you? Terrific, keep up the cheery photos. Thanks for sharing. LYN

LOVESASSY 2006.05.02 at 12:59:26 PDT
Hi Jayne, Have been taking a look at the new pics here and they are simply lovely. I love it when the blossom is on the trees and its my ambition to get a couple of cherry blossom trees in my back garden. Its a shame it doesn't last very long though. You have captured it to perfection as usual. The beautiful colours in the park are stunning. Those shots of the daffodils set against the blue sky take my breath away! It would seem that for some of your shots you are on the ground. I do this when I can but having a dodgy back & knee doesn't help things. I usually end up bending over with my bum in the air. Not a pretty sight. Im just back from a couple of days in South Wales so will get the photos on asap. I can't see your Yorkshire pics. Am I being stupid and just not finding them? Wouldn't surprise me. Anyway Jayne, I hope you are over your cold now and have enjoyed the long weekend. Take care and I will return soon. Have a good week. Love Chesca xxxx

Hello Jayne, I love your springs shots. You seem to be able to capture the real feel of the season. Many of your photos adorn my desk top and are admired by all who pass by daily. God Bless, Cindy

Hi miss Spring = Jayne, from the additions I love 53 and 48 , of course all of them are precious. I am glad your winter is over, it seems to be that there you had it long and grey. I am blessed to live in a place where we do not know about snow and ice unless we go up to the Sierra Nevada, and the good thing is that we can be home en a couple of hours, just to admire the snow and then back in the lovely wather. Your flowers are always so very beautiful and this album will be featured pretty soon. You are so popular and this is well deserved. Love and hugs/kathy

katifelkai 2006.04.30 at 09:56:24 PDT
Hi Jayne! Finally spring is here! I love spring (and summer, of course): the colors of the flowers, the trees, the sky: all is beautiful!!! And your pictures are wonderful! I hope your album will grow more and more. I can say the same as you: my album had only the first flowers, but now I have so many (flowers and pictures!) that I cannot choose (too difficult: all are so beautiful! -I mean the flowers-) I thank you too for your so very nice comments in my featured album last month! (sorry for be late, I was in Paris and in the Netherlands for holidays…! Not bad ;-). Best wishes, Luz

Spring, spring so happy to see you have arrived in the Midlands. We are just a couple hours from Lynn(seahag)but our weather is a bit warmer by usually 10 degrees. But still we too are still waiting for dryer and warmer days. Your album is lovely, great photos, love the Temple bells. Hugs, Laura

hereslaura 2006.04.05 at 02:59:37 PDT
Good Morning Jayne. This album has really grown since I visited last. I have been so busy here on the farm that I have been neglecting WS and my guest book entries. Hope all is well with you and that you are enjoying the spring. We have not reached that level here in Oregon. We are still havign cold rainy weather. The new babies are not out playing just yet, but hope to soon. Come by when you have time and is the little cuties. Hugs, Lynn

ladybug591 2006.04.04 at 05:26:30 PDT
Hi Jayne. How are you? Well I hope. I love the picture of the purple crocus in this album The colour is so intense. As ever you have taken more beautiful photos. Ive taken a few myself and Im still hoping to get to Kew Gardens to photograph all the bulbs. It's suppose to be beautiful. When I went last year I think I had missed the best time. Unfortunately I can't download any pictures at the moment which is a real shame as the crocus one would have been on my desktop for sure. Anyway, I will return to look at your other additions soon. Take care. Bye for now. Love Chesca xx

chesca44 2006.04.03 at 08:14:19 PDT
Hi Jayne, Your climate must be about the same as ours here in central Ohio. Our Forsythia are blooming as well as the daffodils and crocus. I think everyone is anxious for spring this year! Finally, it's April! I was actually outside working in the yard yesterday and it smelled so good. Thanks for sharing. I love visiting your albums. Connie

<font color="006600"> Hi Jayne - yes SPRING is there in the Midlands! Like Jim before me, I really love the Forsythia; that's something that doesn't seem to grow here in Florida but I remember it well from my first 50 years in New England. </font><br> <center><font color="red"> Warm hugs, my friend, Judy </font></center>
said
ladybug591 2006.04.02 at 09:57:39 PDT
Hi Jayne: Isn't spring wonderful! Forsythia is one of my favorites (favourites, translated) but the daffodils, crocus, and other tree flowers are all uplifting when they appear. Soon some of the cacti will be blooming here. We have had some of the very small (perhaps 4mm) wildflowers blooming here for some time but they are not too noticeable unless you look for their purple shining faces. I have not tried to photograph them. Do you go on Daylight Savings Time there? We just jumped our clocks ahead so that we have longer evening daylight hours but it is just a game we play with our minds (and clock settings). Soooo, it is 9:03am here and yesterday it would have been 8:03am so I am an hour late in getting things done but I can do more later in the evening. Bye for now! Jim

Hi again Jayne, thanks for the message on my Kew album. It is a special place, did you see any of the TV progs "A year at Kew". Naturally I also photographed some of the famous trees they have there for my album on that subject over on 102! will load later this week. Your tree you asked about is Viburnum Bodnantense Dawn, as I said would not be without it, best value of any shrub I know. Eric

jillbatchelor2 2006.03.27 at 08:23:08 PST
Hi again Jayne, yes spring finally arrived (for me 6am last thurday!LOL). I had my first daff open on saturday morning & yesterday had the 1st butterfly in the garden. Lots of "early" crocus now open as well as the later ones all together!. May I mention, you should not hsvr been surprised to find No16 in bloom, that is the one shrub I would not be without in my garden no matter how tiny the gdn was. Blooms throughout the winter from early november to april in my gdn & on a still winter day the scent knocks your head off! I will mention I have 1 new album on this name & 2 on the other name, in case you have time in your busy life to view! Eric

saxonfenken 2006.03.18 at 04:24:09 PST
Hi Jayne. It always makes me feel nostalgic whenever I see snowdrops etc. and I am fully expecting to find you have added some crocus before many days have passed. Then I suppose it will be daffodils, just to REALLY rub it in! Beautiful photos, as always, and I'll be keeping an eye out for the additions. Hugs, Peter

Hi Jayne, Thank you for your kind words in my Lake District GB. It is such a beautiful area and I only wish I had managed to get to more places. I will be returning as soon as I can. This is another lovely album you have here Jayne. The catkins are beautiful. I love macro photos of flowers and you have done wonders with the first flowers of the year. The dafs down here are only just starting to open and I will be out there with my camera as soon as they do. Im actually hoping to get to Kew Gardens again this year and catch the mass of bulbs as they flower. I've heard they are quite something if you catch them right. Hope you are well and keeping warm in this chill weather. Take care now. Love Chesca #####

<font color="navy"> Dear Jayne - your springtime *is* coming, slowly but surely! The opening Snowdrops are beautiful and then looking up into them is wonderful. The next time it rains we expect to see you taking shots in those *striped Wellies* though!!! *Big grin!* </font> <center><font color="red">Ladybuggy hugs, Judy </font></center>

Hi Jayne! Thank you for your nice words, and I am sorry to have reminded you of not visiting the redwoods. You say that you will be visiting Wyoming and Nevada soon. Utah is within a striking distance, you can make a detour to Zion and Bryce. I have been to many places and countries, but so far Zion is my number one favorite, and Bryce is a very close second. The car trip from Las Vegas to Zion is only 3 to 4 hrs. Let's see how do they rank thm on your list of favoriote places. I have browswed many of your albums, and they are fantastic. Where did you stand when you took the Birmingham wheel reflection picture? Best Regards from Majed in Texas.

Bonjour Jayne, Vos petites fleurs printanières sont vraiment superbes, ainsi que votre jardin. Le printemps est tellement une belle saison. Pour nous à Québec, on est en pleine tempête de neige aujourd'hui et nous avons de 5 à 6 pieds de neige sur notre terrain (150 à 180 cm)alors ça prendra un peu de temps encore avant que nous commencions à voir des fleurs... Alors je reviendrai voir vos ajouts pour me sentir un peu au printemps. Mes amitiés... Marielle, Québec

ONLY snowdrops??!!! These are delightful, Jayne! They are the cutest little things, and bring so much hope and promise of what is to come. We have had very warm weather here and many of our flowers are blooming already, including our daffodils and crocuses, but today I woke up to a very heavy frost. I hope our precious roses are not damaged and that spring will be glorious. In the meantime while I wait, I will enjoy your lovely snowdrops. Warmest hugs from a chilly California, Beth

Jayne - I could have said, "I told you..." but I wouldn't do that to you, my friend. These little harbingers of spring will bring along their friends before too very long; it may be a month or more, but at least they're a good sign of things to come! I'll bet it felt good to get down and personal with your Snowdrops! Enjoy ... Judy
