There were flowers blooming in New Orleans! They were a wonderful sight!
Soon I’ll have flowers like this one, blooming again.
Macro Monday is easy to play, snap a macro (or any close-up) photo, post it on your blog and come back here and sign MckLinky. 
MM started on Sept 29, 2008 – Thanx to all of you for helping make it such a fun start to the week!

Yup, soon enough! I like the water drops.
When the snow melted, my wife discovered that some pansy’s not only lived through being buried, but appeared to have grown!

Love the center of the first one and the raindrops in the second!
I saw new life beginning to emerge yesterday so I’m hoping to see blooms very soon.

This is such a fun idea… I’m trying to remember to do this every week… but as my favorite uncle used to say… “these days forgettery is much better than my memory” so I think I’ll just post a reminder on my calendar… especially now that things are once again starting to bloom in my garden!
Your images are lovely, Lisa… especially the African Daisy which I neglected to plant last year… this year I’m having those for sure (they do not winter over in our area)… and if the winter cold didn’t kill the blossoms, my Camellia will be blooming in another couple of weeks or so… it’s a bi-color pink/white and has blooms with all possible combinations and permutations of the two colors.
