What wonderful magnolias!
ReplyDeleteIf those scrub pads are steel wool or SOS pads, cutting them will sharpen your scissors as a side-benefit.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful shots and what a cute little dog :)

ReplyDeleteBeautiful tulips for b & w.
ReplyDeleteA beautiful serie, and your b&w photo is great!
ReplyDeleteLove the collection of dog toys. I had a dog that would go around and collect all her possessions and put them in a pile then look at them. Cutest thing ever.
ReplyDeleteOops, not sure if my comment went through! I like the many photos and y ideas for our letter this week, very fun indeed.
ReplyDeleteLove the tulip shot...it looks like they have a tiny black thin rim. Very nice..and of course the puppy is soooo cute. :)
ReplyDeleteThose pics are great! So fun :)
ReplyDeleteI love seeing the blossoms. I neer wouls have thought to convert a photo of tulips into B&W but I think it works very well here!

ReplyDeleteThat yacht is something else! It looks like a cruise ship...
ReplyDeleteWonderful set of images of great variety.
ReplyDeleteGlad to hear you are feeling better, wonderful series of shots Carol, I love the straight out of the camera shot of the water. Have a wonderful weekend.
ReplyDeleteHi Carol. I'm so glad you're feeling better (and soon enough to get in a few romps on the beach with ArtMuse before it is closed to her. (That's interesting that they do that-- because of the summer crowds I suppose.) Loved the daffodils (but you knew that!) and all the spring flowers in whatever form you show them.
ReplyDeleteI loved this beautiful series of photos and love that sweet little dog of yours. Have a great weekend :)
ReplyDeleteOh, my! I love the MA coast, Cape Cod, all of it! I adore the uptop photo.
ReplyDeletenice quote at the end. Too bad residents and their furry friends can't go on the beach together. But I do see both sides of the argument. We won't think about you getting off the beach for the owners of that yacht! {:-D
ReplyDeleteSad that you can't share the beach with your dog all year. If only all dog owners were well-behaved...
ReplyDeleteSo many beautiful shots here... I think my favorite is the magnolia blooms!
ReplyDeleteLove, love love all the Springtime flower shares here today...but I must confess, the little furbaby photos are my favorites.
ReplyDeleteWhy are dogs not allowed on the beaches now 'til September? Beach-goers?
I love seeing trees in bloom! Our trees are now sprouting tender green foliage, but it was a pleasure to see it while it lasted. Of course, there are flowers in bloom all over the place. Nice photo shoot! Link up at Curious as a Cathy!
ReplyDeleteLove those magnolias and the puppy (of course).
ReplyDeleteYour various blog hops give a nice perspective of your slice of life. Always a pleasure...http://lauriekazmierczak.com/you-light-up-my-life/
ReplyDeleteI love the SOOC stuff - but all your photography is top drawer. And, of course, so is the 'Ku. Thanks for linking in. xoxox
ReplyDeleteIt is always such a gift to come here... I love seeing your spring, sprining... and that ArtMuseDog is soaking it up! Thank you Carol!

So nice to see pretty springtime blossoms! So far we have just daffodils, but the lilacs and flowering crabs should burst forth soon. Thank you for stopping in for Anglophile Friday. Glad you enjoyed our little tour of the Yorkshire Dales and sheep. :-)

ReplyDeleteVictoria
Love the black-and-white macro of the tulips, Carol!
ReplyDeleteMy Macro: Looking Forward to Your Visit!
I guess spring is finally arriving in your neck of the woods, but it still doesn't look like many leaves on the trees. Dogs aren't allowed on the beach year round? That doesn't seem fair, but I guess necessary. I like the picture with the little toys.
ReplyDeleteBetty ~ I agree ~ people make more of a mess than dogs ~ but like anything it is the owners that don't pick up after their dogs that spoil it for the rest us ~ Happy Week to you ~ xoxo
DeleteWonderful photos and post. You're so fun and full of life. :) xo
ReplyDeleteThe white magnolias are simply gorgeous! Happy Spring :)
ReplyDeletespring.....the most beautiful time of the year!! and your little puppy is just adorable!!
ReplyDeleteYour photo of the tulips makes them look so delicate an unlike themselves. Nice treatment.
ReplyDeletelovely post as usual!
ReplyDeleteWhat fun digital editing can be. It adds another painterly element to photography. Love that magnolia photo!
ReplyDeletea lovely collection of photos!
ReplyDeleteDigital editing is very interesting.
What is it with these people following us around with their flashy things while we are simply trying to live our lives?!!
