Mountain laurel flowers are beginning to bloom in the high peaks of the Dolly Sods wilderness. Early in the morning as the sun is breaking through the early morning clouds the flowers eagerly await the warmth of the bright rays.

A country mill in the distance surrounded by trees in the summertime. Beautiful Rhododendron flowers in full bloom seem to pop off the screen with sharp focus and contrast.

A picture of a beautiful flower up close. These amazing flowers are simply beautiful and have a lot of color and blossoms in just one bloom.

Daffodils are also called Easter Bells in some European cultures. This is a beautiful large field of Easter Bell daffodils. It is almost past the season for these spring flowers to bloom and it will be an entire year before we see them again. I love these flowers because they are the first to show after the long dead winter and to me they signify that the resurrection is coming soon!

Beautiful field of daffodils. There must be a thousand flowers in this field. These flowers are almost done with their blooming cycle for this year. Yet they are still beautiful and these flowers are never unwelcome at the beginning of spring. Daffodils are also called Easter bells because they typically bloom around the Easter holiday. You can keep this flower picture for a reminder of the daffodils until next spring.

Lightning strikes three times simultaneously in the night sky over Washington DC. A Cherry Tree is in full bloom on the left side of this picture. This photo was taken late at night and was a long exposure to catch the lightning and to be able to see the cherry blossoms at night.
