Så deilig det må være å ha en slik blomsterprakt rundt seg - og så på hytta da! Håper du koser deg der du er - og ikke har pc-abstinens.....

Cowslip bildet er lekkert!

Not only can you show off your beautiful flowers in macros, you know the names, too. As usual...pretty showy blooms. Have a great weekend!

What a lovely series. We can tell how glad you are to see spring back.

Maria said...

From your lovely pictures I can see that spring has finally come to Finland and how happy you are about that! :)
Have a nice week!

Du har en virkelig fin hage, og det er en fornøyelse når du vil dele den med oss. Jeg likte spesielt godt det siste - blomsten kom så fint frem.

The wild Cowslip is the only one to have the delicious perfume. Superb Spring presentation. Red Tulips are a dream co-planted with the blue Scilla.

The weekend is over, so we can now get back to our blogging world. (At least as far as I am concerned). Lovely flowers at your cottage. It's so nice to see the first ones arive.

Heisan - og vel hjem snart!
Nei - det var ingen peon på mitt Flower Today! Det var en stakkars - hold deg fast nå - TULIPAN! 2 av dem faktisk!

Måtte bare si det - siden du antyder at jeg kan bli litt "plaget" av alle fremtidige tulipanbilder fra deg! :) Måtte flire litt for meg selv da!
Tulipaner er av mine favorittblomster - så bare hiv på med tulipaner så mye du orker. For jeg har ikke hytte - jeg må nøye meg med det jeg får seg fra din!

Humf....være grevinne og måtte innrømme at man ikke har landsted. Men jeg har TÅRN da! :)

Fabulous photos and those little dogs are gorgeous. Thank you very much for sharing with Today's Flowers. Have a great week.

Regina said...

Seems I dont want to leave your site. I love all the blooms you posted.

Tammie Lee said...

All your photos are lovely, the scilla really does it for me. The color of the flowers, the clarity and the contrast of the background, wonderful! Cool dogs too.

Such BEAUTIFUL blossoms in macro views! I love your furry friends too.
Hugs and blessings,

Lanny said...

Thank you for the lovely feast for my eyes!

I love the macros, especially the scilla!! And Ljuba and Luca are rather bored with posing, if you ask me. If they are like mine, they would rather be running, and rolling in the fish guts you have. We have a dead goose that can be chewed on, here.
