“A single crocus blossom ought to be enough to convince our heart that springtime, no matter how predictable, is somehow a gift, gratis…a grace.”
How many of us are coming out of 2020 and ready for new start? If I’ve learned anything, it would be to pursue things that matter and find joy in every moment. Photography remains the one constant to help me linger in the beauty all around me, in every season. And for that, I’m truly grateful.

The Morton Arboretum {Spring}
Spring was very satisfying this year. I made sure I took my time looking deeply and capturing beauty as life in nature unfolded in front of me. Loved every minute because peace and inspiration filled my soul.
All images were taken on the west side of The Morton Arboretum >>> Lake Marmo, The Thornhill Education Center, and The Fragrance Garden.

Happy THIRD day of Spring! The Fragance Garden is open at The Morton Arboretum and I caught this little birdie sitting so pretty on a rock.
Love this soft editing.
