It’s only February, yet spring is already in the air. I’ve been taking allergy medicine and admiring the cherry blossoms, tulips, and daffodils that have been popping up everywhere I turn. As much as I love spring flowers, I’ve still got my fingers crossed for more rain!
I took this photo at work before classes last week. The kids thought it would be funny to take pictures of me taking pictures of the flowers until I hollered at them to go away. They all laughed and complied with their crazy Ms. Nguyen. 🙂
I was originally going to use this as a Macro Monday shot, but I thought the delicate petals would be perfect for the letter D instead.

I didn’t realize we have such a “beauty” at Yolo. Oh yeah!! The staff are delicate and beautiful people.
You’re very generous with your compliments. 😉
Nice shot!!! This is beautiful.
Thank you! 🙂
beautiful shots…such clarity and detail.
Thanks, bum.
Beautiful pictures and so soft.
Thanks, Linda! 🙂
Beautiful image, superb use of depth
Thanks, Sreejith! I shot this at f/8 or f/11, I can’t remember. But isn’t it amazing what the macro does?
Really, I always enjoys taking macro shots… but that’s my wife’s department she does it better.
That’s great that both you and your wife are into photography!
Wooow! Your fotos are so professional looking. Awesome!
Thanks so much, Sadia! I still have plenty to learn! 🙂
Such a beautiful flower x
Thanks, Elaine! I’m starting to see entire trees in bloom already!
How lovely!! We aren’t…:(
I wish we weren’t either. We’re in desperate need of rain!
Oh dear…now rain we’ve had more than enough of!!!
Go ahead and send it our way! California is in a state of emergency. Worst drought in recorded history. Eeck!
So beautiful.:)
Thanks, momma. 🙂
I cannot say enough about how great your pictures are! Just love them.. 🙂
Aww, thanks so much. That makes me smile!
Truly delicate! I can just imagine your students taking pictures of you taking pictures — too funny 😉
Yeah, I got paranoid that I’d end up on Twitter or Instagram looking all kinds of stupid. Kids and their social media, these days. I’m afraid!
I love it that you utilize your time in between work! I often do this myself. Squeeze in a mini project during a busy schedule!
Yes, it helps make everything more manageable when you’re working on a fun project!
