dogwood_sm

Photo Details
Poster: scrap-genie  (see this users gallery)

I was so surprised to see how fast this dogwood is opening up! I could hardly believe the change in only 12 days. Sometimes plants change so rapidly in spring that I think it would be wonderful to set up time lapse photography to really see how quickly they grow.

Oh this is so pretty Jean, I love the drastic change it shows. And such a big sign of Spring coming forth. Great page!

This is lovely!! The colors are all perfect for the dogwood -- which is one of my favorite flowering trees.

Beautiful sign of spring - love how you put the photos on the dark background. It reallly makes them stand out. It's interesting to photograph something changing - it makes me think I should head out because our prickly pear is just loaded with yellow flowers with more to come!

This is such a pretty plant...and I have no idea what it is but I wish we had it in Europe. It looks especially attractive with its unfurled leaves but both stages look wonderful against the purple and turquoise.( I´ve been taking photos of the buds on my tiny apple trees every day and, you´re right, it´s amazing how fast some plants grow.)

Gorgeous! I love the difference in the background of the limb as well from gray and kind of barren to lush and green! Great capture of mother nature!

It is too bad you did not literally go out every day and take a photo of it. You would have noticed the differences even then. I think they grow much faster than we think things do. Love the page and the comparison.

This is soooooooo pretty. I love the way you have the flowers peeking out from underneath the photos and the swirls, too. The ragged little journalling tags look fabulous. Great page.
