As I was finalising the raspberry parade for the fresh theme, mother nature brought forth another idea.
Clouds sweeping in from the west spread an array of sparkling baubles. From the kitchen window, the primula gathered at the base of the daffodils were now looking somewhat ‘fresh’. Alas the sun did not shine to let them truly sparkle, but hopefully you will feel these suitably meet the challenge.

As well as meeting the fresh challenge, hopefully this will be appreciated by those still waiting for spring to manifest itself, including those still buried in snow. So this one is for you Dale.
Let me know what you think of the images and, in particular, the processing.

Oh John! Thank you for the flowers!
So definitely pretty. I love that the background is so dark, allowing those fresh babies to really pop!

Hi there Julie – I think I should have left the unfurling out of the mosaic and posted it separately. I think it gets a wee bit lost within all the images. Thanks for the positive vibes once more. MM 🍀
