"Everything is blooming most recklessly; if it were voices instead of colours, there would be an unbelievable shrieking into the heart of the night."  Rainer Maria Rilke


 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Spring Shoots

March in Sale Park. We were rather disappointed with the weather; the low lighting meant that "action" photography was out of the question. We decided to give the Macro lens a chance. To our surprise we noticed all sorts of shoots and buds, timidly emerging from bare branches to welcome the coming spring. Their vivid colours lightened up the otherwise grey, drizzly environment: spring was slowly taking over the park.
