The Bluebells have Risen Again

in #photography6 years ago (edited)

I don't know about you but these are some my favorite flowers that bloom in the early spring time! They have such a special meaning to me, and not so much because of how they look, even though they look really beautiful, but because of how their smell reminds me of how excited I was as a child to see them blooming again each spring. Now, whenever I smell them it's like I'm 5 years old again for a few seconds :)

I was looking for the pink colored ones too, which are rare in my backyard and usually they like to sleep in for 2-3 years longer than the purple ones, but maybe they'll bloom a little bit later this time. Will definitely share pictures of them too if they choose to wake up as well.

What are some of your favorite flowers that bloom in the early spring?

Sort:  

Yeeees they have a specific smell, they are one of a kind! I can say that bluebells are one of my favorites as well as the tulips:) The dark mode of your photos is so unique:)

Yep tulips are awesome too :) and thank you! I'm glad you like the dark mode, a lot of people see it as an incorrect way to photograph but it's my personal favorite for some reason, I like the mood it conveys :)

Mine are snowballs :) Awesome photos you took here! :) Keep up the excellent job @emma-hs!

Thanks @dalz :) glad you liked them! Btw I haven't seen snowbells for years, I remember I liked them a lot as a child but I haven't seen one in so long :D

I remember those cuties! Thanks to you, now I know they are called bluebells. We do not have a defined spring here with about 300 days of sunshine in a year. My favourite flower is the Flame Lily which sprouts after the rains in December.

Wow I just googled flame lily and I realized I've never seen it before! I guess we don't have those kinds of flowers here, but it's so gorgeous! I can now only wonder how it smells, I always wish we could google that too :))
