Transition
Bozeman, Montana
2011
I’ve got some more snow photos to post, and there is still a couple feet of snow on the ground outside my studio, but it’s such a beautiful warm sunny blue-sky day outside I decided to go with something more springlike. A number of years ago, when talking about what color flowers to plant outside our house, I didn’t have any particularly strong preferences except I knew I didn’t want white. With snow on the ground so many months out of the year, I thought it was a good idea to put some variety in our lives and give some other colors a chance during growing season. Still, since we’re in that transition time between winter and spring, I suppose it’s appropriate that the first flowers to appear on our dining room table should be white tulips, and they are quite striking against the dark wood surface.
This is just so elegant. As it’s pouring down rain in Seattle, it’s lovely to imagine Spring again.
Thanks Molly. I like our blue skies today, but even if it were raining that would be o.k.–at least it’s not white and you don’t have to shovel or plow it!
