Fine Art: Field of Poppies
Having a long winter makes me really miss flowers. Actually I started to like the colors of winter, at least for photography purposes, but I think there's nothing compared to the colors of spring and summer. Love flowers. Let there be flowers soon!

Beautiful! It won't be too long anymore when the neighborhood balconies will be full of flowers. It's like competition who would have the most beautiful balcony :-). I like that always. It makes the surrounding really pretty. It's been actually late this year. Winter is staying too long.

Vintage Art: American Crescent Cycles
Wow! Where do I start? The gorgeous hair, the lovely yellow dress or the beautiful flowers? Love this print! And come to think of it, it's actually about cycles lol! Miss biking really. I don't look this gorgeous when I ride bike but it's something I really enjoy. I love all my biking moments, even the falling down moments. You learn how to endure pains, get up and pedal again :-).

Vintage Art: Tahiti
On my list to visit. It's for sure some place I would love to spend some relaxing days. Looking at this print, forget about the girl, I'm going for the fruits haha! Miss tropical fruits. I do get them here too but I love it when they're always accessible. Just googled some Tahiti photos, wah gorgeous place. Wanna go!

Decorative Art: Celebratory Whim
There are lots to celebrate. First, weather looks really great (chilly but sun is shining). Second, it's not gonna be that busy week than I thought (still busy but not that bad). Lastly, things are working just fine (less stress than how I imagined it to be). Cheers to all that!

Decorative Art: Chilly Morn
Chilly but beautiful. Same with the weather here. Was outside yesterday and enjoyed it immensely though the wind was biting. I'm excited to go out again today, got some important shopping to do and the sun seems to support me with my quest. Lovely weather outside, can't wait.

Decorative Art: Bella Grande Tulips
Another Spring flower. I'll be really on guard for the first bloom. I feel lucky to be living close to the botanical garden. I get to enjoy lots of different flowers without the hassle of tending them :-). I actually like planting flowers but when one lives in the city, one gets limited space. I'll see to it that I'd be having more space in the future.

Photography: Bluebells Flowering
Wow, this is a lovely sight and love the colors too! I've seen bluebells at a nearby store, really pretty flowers. Must be Spring already! It feels and smells like one. I'm so excited to try out my cam. It just got returned from repair. It's all ready for Spring!

Photography: The Garden Cat
Lucky kitty to be surrounded by these beautiful flowers and probably under a clear, blue sky. I'm so jealous. I'm desperately waiting for spring. Would love to bring my cam for a walk to the botanical garden. I would also get such lovely blooms there in spring.

Photography: Nature Scene of Blue Hydrangeas in Blythedale Park
I saw some hydrangeas in the shops already. Hm, I smell spring and summer coming :-). Love these flowers; they're sooo pretty specially the blue ones. I haven't seen such a big plant though just those things planted in the pots. Got to check botanical garden if they have one.

Fine Art: The Luncheon
Such a beautiful Monet! First time to see it. I love everything here; the sunny setting, the colors and the food on the table :-). Would love to have such a lovely lunch too! Had a great lunch today at least. No sun but it's okay. That's got to happen these coming months I hope.

Decorative Art: Down at the Oasis II
Where there's water, there are life forms. I haven't seen an oasis but would be really fascinating to be in one. That means have to be in the desert for that and most probably middle of the desert. The only desert I've been to is Las Vegas :-). Lots of oases with big buildings called casinos and hotels :-).

Fine Art: Rupe Rupe (Fruit Gathering in Tahiti)
Oh how I love picking fruits. I wish to own lots of fruit trees so I'd be having fun harvesting later. No, I'm not talking about Farmville :-). It has to be a real farm with real trees. When I was younger, I would climb to get a ridiculously tiny, yellow guava. So much effort for such thing but I remember how excited and eager I always was to get one.

Photography: Mediterranean Beach in Cinque Terre, Liguria, Italy
I really love umbrellas. Most likely because of the shape and the colors. I carry one always in my bag but that's because it could rain here anytime :-). This photo reminds me of our trip to Italy when we were searching for a nice beach close to Pisa. We stopped by one and it was so crowded. Umbrellas were lined up like this and they were all occupied. So we decided to look for another one and ended up in a more deserted and wider beach.

Decorative Art: Mindless Diversion
I had lots of opportunities to enjoy red sky when I was vacationing in the tropics. I realized how I really missed it. It was beautiful and invigorating! I guess it was always like that but when you grew up with it, you don't see this things anymore. Experiencing the opposite sky color will make me value this one in the future.

Decorative Art: Poppies
Very lovely colors! Spring? Summer? Looks definitely warm. We still don't have the signs here. Outside looks like never ending winter but bearable :-) in fact I was in the city yesterday shopping. I guess cold is bearable when you get to shop something nice :-). Got to enjoy all the lovely spring collections.

Fine Art: Apple Tree I, c.1912
I love to eat apples! Anything fruity would do. I'm used to have fruits as dessert but we ran out since yesterday. Got to fetch some later. I'm missing the taste; that juicy, sweet, refreshing taste after a heavy meal. Love it! It makes everything lighter. Last time, we got really crunchy apples. Hope we could get some good ones again.

Photography: Storks and Kilimanjaro
This is such a beautiful photo; makes my mind travel. I get to see a flock of birds visiting here in the neighborhood but they're always too far to shoot. Shoot means with my cam ;-). I'm a bird-friendly person. It's fascinating to see a bare tree full of chubby burdies resting. Really a pity that the tree is a bit far.

Photography: Peace
I just wanna have peace with my body at the moment. Got 2 major infections and it's going crazy. I barely had sleep last night; everytime I move, I wake up. Now I'm having a big head and feeling tired. Hope these go away soon; really got so much to do.

Photography: Gorges du Bras de Caverne
I will love to see such magnificient scenery but I guess that'll require me to go hiking. Got to be really fit for that. Looking at this image feels like breathing fresh and very clean air. It's been a while since I've done that but I guess I'll be ready this week or the next. So excited to go out again! The thought makes my Monday happy :-).
