A Spring Anthology

The great thing about Spring is that sneaks up on you, very silent.
As opposed to fall, during which the leaves will have changed color in seemingly minutes, and summer, which leaves no doubt of its sudden presence on account of the heat, Spring is a smooth, and slow transition from frozen dullness into a sweet tempered calm.
Perhaps that’s what I love so much about it? Or maybe it’s the colors that seem to spring up from nowhere to everywhere, the abundance of freshness, or the fact that blouses and cardigans are now replacing my exhausted coat?
Whatever it is, these pictures, accompanied by quotes I’ve chosen that capture the mood, are full of the color, beauty and animation that is Spring.
I hope they excite and inspire you, like they did me.
