this IS heaven!

I just checked out my friend Beth Logan's blog...."almost heaven".  We were having a long, catch-up chat today and started talking about lilacs and how much we love them....can't imagine spring without them...simply can't live without them! My earliest flower memories are from my grandmothers garden, where each May we would pick bouquets of every shade for her to enjoy.  Along with these gorgeous blooms, I just love tiny blue forget me nots that pop up every year.  I'm often reminded of the William Blake quote....to see the world in a grain of sand and heaven in a wild flower.  I've been so busy with work and getting my house ready to put on the market lately...I finally took a few minutes to just stop and breathe in these beautiful flowers.  hope you enjoy looking....

  2. Hi Jane,
    I visited your site and your blog today for the first time. Your work is beautiful. I feel inspired tonight after seeing it. I love the photos you posted here. I'm walking with my camera in hand too, chasing all those moments of spring. Good luck with your house!
