So pleased that "Goodbye Winter" tied for second place in the 5/21/2023 contest "BOUQUET FOR MOTHERS DAY - LARGE ARRANGEMENT- MANY FLOWERS" contest held by the Amazing Challenges Group. Many thanks to contest administrator, Ann Warrenton, and to everyone who voted for my image. Congratulations to the other winners!!
Nothing signals winter's demise better than a bright, colorful vase of spring flowers. Even in March and April when the trees might still be bare, and even in some locations, the snow still falls, a trip to your local market and a splurge of a few dollars can bring spring right into your home!! Put them in a pretty crystal vase or plop them into an old white pottery milk jug, it doesn't matter. They'll bring you right out of the winter doldrums every time!!!

Fine art as well as product purchases of this image will not include a watermark, and if I may make a recommendation ... this image will look its very best on the fine art paper choice of "picture rag."
