Weekly Winners: April 5-April 12
I had a scare with my camera late last week, continuing into early this week… but I think all is well…
Here are my Weekly Winners.
Peeking out…
Sunlight shining in…
Budding blooms…
“Azalea tree”…
This photo was a “mistake”… have no clue what I was actually aiming at… but I think I was shooting, literally, “off the hip” while testing my camera after it was “healed.”
Lit from within…
My favorite of the week…
The moon in bloom…
Fallen blossoms…
Full bloom…
The view from my living room…
More of my week’s favorites are here.
And also visit our lovely hostess, Sarcastic Mom, for more Weekly Winners.

I was going to say the first one was my favorite, but I am so in love with the moon shot - would you be willing to sell it?????? It’s awesome!

that moon one is very cool. So do you have the green thumb? All those flowers are gorgeous.
Thanks! I am not overly green of thumb. Everything was here when my husband bought the house in 1990. I do want to plant a few flowers… tulips, maybe?
By Amy on Apr 13, 2008
I can’t get over that moon shot, wow! And no, Maine is no closer to spring. I did find some green grass and a few dandelions though so it will be here eventually. Until then, I’ll enjoy your spring! :)

Thanks, Amy! Spring will come. Soon. I can feel it. :)

Not much of a plant Life here :)
Some Date Palms, some grass and some tiny flowers.
The desert must have once been beautiful in Spring time, but due to the war and the Kuwaitis not taking care of it, it is going to hell :(
Here’s some from the “desert” in front of our house ;)

That’s a shame! :( I guess you’ll have to enjoy the flowers you have… and hope for better things in the future…
