Like the Spirit of Love felt everywhere;
And each flower and herb on Earth's dark breast
Rose from the dreams of it's wintry rest."

It's Round Robin time again, and what could be a better choice for a topic that, "NATURE," to celebrate the first full day of spring? Our challenge subject comes to us by way of Gina, author of the AOL Journal, "Gina's Space." I can't wait to see what we all come up with! :)
"Nature gives to every time and season some beauties of it's own; and from morning to night, as from the cradle to the grave, it is but a succession of changes so gentle and easy, that we can scarcely mark their progress."
-Charles Dickens
Sometimes NATURE brings us storms...
Sometimes NATURE is delicious...
Sometimes NATURE becomes cheese :)
Sometimes NATURE is... um... RAW...
Sometimes NATURE is angry...
Sometimes NATURE is calm...
Sometimes NATURE isn't fair...
Sometimes NATURE doesn't want it's picture taken...
Sometimes NATURE shows us it's strength...
Sometimes NATURE shows us it's vulnerability...
Sometimes NATURE is misunderstood...
Meet my opossum friend, Ipson Pendragon.

WOW what great photos, Love the blossom. Cheers Kerrin
oh Carly... your photo's are always so fantastic!!!
Love these pics, especially the bumblety bee and the sunset. Awesome!
I very much enjoyed your pictures and general treatment of the theme, Carly! And you always find the best poetry and sayings to go along with your photos! Great work!
I've not seen Ipson in a while! Those guys are cute. So much variety in nature. Tough to choose a favorite, I like them all :-)
Ohmigaw, I love these photos. Did you take them?! I love the bumblebee and the possum especially. Oh, and the deer biting his arse, too.
Okay, I love 'em all. Beautiful.
Did you know possums like Cheetos? (Well, they do.)
Wow, what an array! I love the captions, and the purple and orange cloud shot especially.
Wow, that's a lovely set of shots. I do like the bee. They're so hard to capture in freeze frame.
Sometimes someone puts in the most perfect entry...
(((( You ))))
Love,
Me
What a wonderful series. I tried to find a favorite but was unable to. They are all great pictures.
Wow...those are some awesome pics, and captions to go with them! I love the flower one.
Annie =)

It is such a treat to have blog-ish friends that like to see nature as revelatory.
May your tripod always be level.
Thanks

So many beautiful pix! The deer is so cool!
Sorry I'm so late coming to visit but life's been way too busy lately. Thanks for stopping by mine :)
These are all outstanding shots & all fitting for a nature submission. You have such a professional quality to your photos.
