Spring

Spring happens pretty quickly in North Carolina; it arrives overnight and is over in a month. The speed at which everything bursts into life is incredible. So, yet again I’m a little late updating this blog’s header image.

Mainly for my own purposes – the images I use for the header are in this Fickr Set. The Spring image is a close up of a Japanese Maple in our front garden waking up after Winter.

See also Autumn and Winter (I never got around to Summer last year – this year maybe).

Autumn

When Autumn arrives in North Carolina it’s hard to miss. We still have a month or so before it’s here in all it’s glory but it’s definitely on it’s way and this weekend brings the first really cold night. So I’ve updated this blogs header image from Spring to Autumn – not much snapping this year so there was no Summer picture; if you were wondering. The Autumn picture was taken last November at Pines Lake, Apex, NC – you can see the full un-cropped version here on Flickr.

Spring is finished

Well almost. My intention was to change the header image (above) with the seasons – but Spring in North Carolina has come and almost gone. I’d better start looking for a summer picture. Fall picture is here if you are interested.
