Beautiful as always. Adding a lift to our hearts ♥ May you have a beautiful May Dear Anita...,again thank you for lifting our hearts up. ♥
ReplyDelete... yes, beautiful as always, friend Anita ... all that whiteness in your blog makes my heart smile ... every time ... cannot find a proper reply button, so I'll reply like this if you don't mind ... Tchaikovsky is one of my very favourites ... Symphony # 4, 5 and 6 are my favourites ... Love, cat.
DeleteLove the mix of ballerinas and flowers. The colors are outstanding!
ReplyDeleteAnita, you express the season so eloquently! Happy Spring, my friend. These beautiful images will be played over and over in my mind. Gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteMay is surely a beautiful month, and my birthday month! Spring has finally arrived in your area, and the blossom trees look glorious. They have already come and gone here. Oh, I love that picture of the shoe, it's so mysterious and lovely. It looks like you have many vintage outfits and accessories to play around with when using your camera. Your pictures just made my mother's day. They're sooooo pretty.
ReplyDeletelove, ~Sheri
Anita I am so happy you have continued on with your blog. I will always look forward to your lovely words and images.
ReplyDeleteHugs on Mother's Day

Anita, as always your words and photos transport me to another world! I love seeing your work and am so very happy that you are enjoying it so much! Thank you for sharing your beauty with us.
ReplyDeleteLove to you my dear friend,
Dearest Anita!
ReplyDeleteI am elated that you are back on your blog sharing your mesmerizing images and transcending words! I have been away for awhile. Somehow I missed your return. Likely because I switched from Google to Wordpress a couple months ago. Our Spring has been the warmest and loveliest in memory.
Thank you for the gift of Les Dames D'abord!

Again Anita with her wand - you make fairytales come true and alive, dear :)))!!!

Oh Yes!!!! And such beautiful images of your gorgeous Spring!!!! We too are having a fabulous one, with
ReplyDeletesummer-like weather in April and May!!!
~ Violet
I couldn't agree with you more Anita. There is something about May, about spring: the blossoms, the young leaves on the trees, the birdsong... that makes it special. The waking up of nature after a long, dark winter. The fairy in your photo's adds to the beauty of it all.
ReplyDeleteHave a lovely weekend ahead.
Madelief x
I adore those gorgeous blooms and the colors are magnificent!! xo Karolyn
ReplyDeleteI did it -- you are on the side bar. Going out to Garden, the lilac's are just getting green buds.
ReplyDeleteI sent a photo of Bennie. He is soooo cute. yvonne
THE most beautiful blog out there. Serene and calming - believe me I need this in my life.
ReplyDeleteLove ya girl!!!
Anita,
ReplyDeleteWhat stunning images. You had me with the very first image of the gold shoes with bows. I do have a shoe obsession. And an obsession with these colors. How wonderful that Spring has arrived at your house.
Judith
Chère Anita,
ReplyDeleteIl y a quelques années j’avais, tout à fait par hasard, découvert ton blog.
J’étais absolument ravi par son contenu, et je le suis toujours…
Le choix de ta musique me plaït d’ailleurs aussi parfaitement.
Je te souhaite des jours de printemps magiques…
In a secret valley
Of my restless mind
I saw a noble woman
Sweet and kind
Rare gifts she scattered
As trough my dreamworld
She passed apace
Divine smile, when she met
And clothing this veiled place
With loveliest reflection
Of her face...

Cher ami, merci infinement.....mon but c'est toujours d'élever l'âme de celui ou celle qui vient ici. Mais le printemps, c'est le meilleur poète du monde et ce sont les mots qui parlent. Merci de votre poème ici, c'est toujours un coup de génie! OH! Et la musique, quel don merveilleux d'avoir le rhytme des paroles et des notes ensemble!
DeleteIt comes as a surprise each year, doesn't it? A very welcome surprise. I'm kind of partial to May myself, it being my birth month. I must tell my mother that it was great timing!
ReplyDeleteI'm so glad that you called it to our attention that May is the time when reality and make-believe walk as one heart!
I stepped in here and immediately felt calm. Dear Anita your post is wonderful and your photographs, breathtaking! Thanks for sharing beauty, fills my heart.
ReplyDeleteNancy
Good Morning Dear One,
ReplyDeleteMay is an incredibly fast moving month for me. So many Birthdays, recitals and events that I am tardy in my visits to my dearest of friends and I apologize for that.
But here I am this quiet morning enjoying your breathtaking photography, serene images of Spring, blooming colors and a dash of make-believe! One word perfection!
With love,
Jemma
Spring also finally arrived at Cottage and it's magical, like it's taking some weight off my shoulders. Everything feels lighter and happier.
ReplyDeleteStunningly beautiful photos. Spring, April and May are glorious, my favorite months of the year.
ReplyDeleteHappy Spring to you Anita………..
Your spring is really awesome! It's full of gentleness and natural beauty.
ReplyDeleteWow, Anita, I saw your comment on my blog tonight and was wondering why I hadn't seen a post in my email from you so I decided to pop over to check if I had missed something. Did I ever!! Oh my goodness, sweet friend. The colors in this collection just melt me and the stunning clarity of each shot is mesmerizing. Your words, your passion, your talent all combine to present perfection. I absolutely LOVE this! And the music is the perfect accompaniment. I'm smiling as I reluctantly leave.
ReplyDeletePS...I know I sound so dramatic but your page just puts me into a trance. Love to you!
Amazing photos dear Anita. You have captured the essence of Spring in so many ways. Loving the whole presentation, music included. You truly are an artist. xo
ReplyDeleteAnita, your images are absolutely gorgeous. . .and magical! I always love visiting your blog; it gives me such pleasure to see what you've created. Just gorgeous!!!
ReplyDeleteAnita, thank you for the birthday wishes! It means so much to me. I had a nice day at the Zoo, and it was so fun just looking at all the silly animals. I am always amazed when I see what God created. They are precious and beautiful.
ReplyDeleteSchool is almost out for you, I'm sure. Jess can't wait cause she has a lot of wedding planning to do, and this gives her more time.
Have a lovely week, and I am headed to your instagram to see if you have any recent pics. :)
love, ~Sheri
Anita, got the comment. the post is beautiful and the music is sooooo Spring. The news about lines at the airport , and the trains, it's awful. Does not have to be like that.What are you going to do this Summer?
ReplyDeleteGoing to the Doctors today, why is it coffee taste better in a fine china cup? It's probably me ever since the Cancer, Chemo I smell stuff that no one else does. Maybe I am just fading at 80 years.
Hugs to you, my Mother had a high instep like that foot in the Antique shoe.
Anita, sending a link to a very funny thing on an interview with our MAINE Gov. There are a few bad words just to warn you. It is so true and funny. yvonne

Dearest friend, what a glorious post! Your stunning photos have been accompanied by one of my favorite classical pieces {{smiles}} I feel as though I could stay here all day and simply enjoy the beauty you have offered.

ReplyDeleteso perfect with all these lovely images.
It is so refreshing to visit you although I have been

Nice to see you are sharing your talents again.

I love the music and beautiful photos! I love the month of May...and lilacs, too! :)
ReplyDeleteThank you for stopping by, Anita. Yes, the colors of spring are magic, especially in your neck of the woods. Sending you splendor on this Sunday.
ReplyDeleteMuch love.
well ....it's JUNE and I am finally able to visit you here . my heart jumped when I saw the old YOU style again .... the music .... the lyrics and the pictures ......made by you !
ReplyDeleteI do not know why but I was not in a good relationship with my appliances ( I looked this up but I do not know if the translation is right ) I mean my laptop , Ipad and Iphone . To use for Blogging .
Most of the time I have no idea what I am doing . I seem to want things that are not possible .
I started blogging without "an education" and I am always trying and hoping it will work out .
Things change all the time and than I am lost ......
for my latest blogpost I have been doing things on my Ipad and the pictures by my Iphone and the sidebar on my laptop . I stopped when it went wrong but I wanted so much to succeed that I tried and tried and tried .......
so happy to be here again . sending you lots of love from Holland
PIGEON SOUP, OH MY! Anita, I love hearing stories about your dear mother. She sounds wonderful, and so grounded. Family seemed to be important to her, and she sounds like a silent but strong woman. My dad always wanted us to try different foods that my mom made, even if we didn't want to. And I'm glad that he did, cause now I can say that I tried certain foods. The hunting doves look a bit different than the doves we see around our homes. And a little secret.....I had to cut off his little feet in the pictures because he was standing on a light fixture that had bird mess all over it hahaha.
ReplyDeleteHave a good rest of the week, Anita. I bet you're out of school now. Jess is too! Relax and enjoy the summer days, sweet friend.
love, ~Sheri
Dear Anita stopped to visit. What a wonderful treat - your interview on Vicki Archer's page. You are such an inspiration. Hope your day is very blessed. Hugs!
