    Stunning images! I really like the way you focus on the center of the flowers, just as they are opening. It seems to speak of hope and new beginnings. I hope you are finally feeling better, Ellen. 💗

      Julie, so glad you liked the flowers. Interesting interpretation of my focal point in some of the shots. Yes, life is finally returning to normal, thank God. My husband has a lung condition so that was REALLY scary.❤️

    Thank you, Ellen, for the lovely photos. The Lillies of the Valley were a favorite of my mother and brought back fond memories.

    So sorry to hear you had covid! I am glad you are feeling better. Take care! 💐

      Thank you so much, Cheryl! Glad to bring back memories of your mother. Tested negative today… the real worry was my husband who has a lung condition. But he’s been negative awhile now.

    so late to comment (sorry) but hope that you and your husband are all better now – covid is much more scary than many people realize. Lo9ving the last photo with the purple and blue; it’s almost mystical in nature! Linda xx
