Welcome Spring and Roadwork

Just a few days ago, I captured the last of the ice at Grimsby Beach.  Yesterday it was a sea of green grass and happy dogs. Today we rush ahead to May with flowering fruit trees as our picture of the day.  This one is at Peninsula Ridge winery, on the road that leads up to the restaurant.   This will be the site of much construction this year.  A roundabout is being built at the intersection of Greenlane, Durham, Highway 8, and the entrance to Peninsula Ridge.  The work is underway already.

Bonsai Art - A Garden in the Palm of My Hand

This is a beautiful Pomegranate tree at Longwood Gardens, May 2014.  You can see the little orange blossoms.  Its label says that it has been in training since 1910.  What a marvel.  I've taken the original image and show 2 interpretations, with French Kiss textures.  Let me know which one you prefer.
