Then followed that beautiful season... Summer....
Filled was the air with a dreamy and magical light;
and the landscape
Lay as if new created in all the freshness of childhood.
Henry Wadsworth Longfellow

I wish they could stay,
those flowers of May.
May is probably my favourite month for flowers. June would be a close second as that's when the roses and peonies will be in full bloom here.
Ah, those colors and textures are just so soothing and beautiful.
all those april showers came in handy, eh?! :)
The flowers are beautiful. They are all the more beautiful for the wait.
Those first flowers remind me of fireworks bursting in the sky.
I LOVE the pink dogwood shots. Beautiful color and light.
LOVELY images!!!

Yes May flowers are very beautiful
Good day to you !
Lovely May! The last shot is soooo BEAUTIFUL!
much love Anna
I don't know this pretty lavender flower but I always admire flowering dogwood on your pictures.
Both species are so beautiful.
Thanks for the encouragement and kind words, it's nice to be back again and see these beautiful flower shots from all my flower lover bodies.
Have a great weekend!
What a lovely combination!
Very nice compositions - different angles and perspectives.
Love the allium and dogwood.
Spring has sprung in WW,WA!!
Gorgeous pictures.
Hugs Madi and Mom
Such beautiful flowers, and fantastic shots. These are food for the soul!
Quotes are wonderful and so are your photographs. Makes we want to go out now and ride my bike - I will do!
But first a quote for you ...
A life without love is like a year without summer. ~Swedish Proverb
The perspective on the last picture of the pink dogwood bloom is quite ingenious. You did a terrific job on these!
LOVE that last one! Great angle on the shot...Nice job Girl!
Happy weekend to you....

second up from bottom looks like music to me. it sings. beautiful
All lovely photos. My fave are the 1st, 3rd and 4th shots.
I love the way macro shots enhance the flower capturing for memory the moment of appreciation, as yours do. As for the artichoke flower above, I gather it is edible, though I do wonder how such a plant produces an artichoke! Perhaps I am confusing it with something else.
Love them all. And a Quote I'll be back. Have a wonderful weekend.
wow! what a beautiful splash of pink for your blog! And, I LOVE your header! We have a balloon festival coming up down here too...can't wait!
I love your dogwood flower photos, Judy, but the allium are beautiful too!
Isn't it awesome that God granted us such beauty to enjoy. Oh how I love it. I just picked some lilacs, oh my how sweet they smell, I wish I could preserve it.
Wonderful quote and gorgeous flowers!
Thanks for participating!
Simply gorgeous!! I'll definitely check your links out. Have a nice weekend.
Your May flower shots are all gorgeous, but I particularly like the last shot. What fabulous colors for May!
Hi!
Beautiful flowers and quote fits quite nicely. Have a great day!

Beautiful flowers -- I love the abstract quality of the last one.
Oh I love them all. Those first are allisium or something like that aren't they? Part of the onion family I've heard strangely. Such beautiful colors!! And as always beautiful captures!
Those are gorgeous flowers. I just love that first one.

The pinks n the Lilac's are just perfect for the summer. Beautiful flowers and the quote :):)
Indian summer is almost bereft of flowers...The bougains, Portulaca's, sunflowers are the few which add floral colour to our gardens.
A lovely set of blooms. Summer is indeed coming to your place!
You some really pretty flower shots and macros there. =)
