Spring has Sprung!

Wow – Minneapolis has enjoyed an unseasonably warm week with temps into the 60’s. This is about 20 degrees above normal. All the snow has finally melted and I thought it was a good time to go peek at the gardens. Oh my gosh!! There are green things out there and some of my flowering shrubs, like the azaleas, are showing new buds!

This prompted me to look at one of my favorite files in my computer simply labeled ‘flowers’ (I took these photos during the Minneapolis Men’s Garden Club tour last summer).  And that prompted me to see what new creations I could make with some of my new Photoshop filters, actions, and brushes. I was having so much fun, the time was flying by faster than looking up old junior high school friends on Facebook! I had to force myself to stop. But here are some of the cool “new” flowers I was able to create.
