Easter may be synonymous with candy-filled Easter baskets, pastel colored decorations, epic egg hunts, and chocolate bunnies, but for Christians, it is so much more.

It is a sacred time to celebrate and honor the resurrection of Jesus Christ. New life!

Spring’s new life … After a drab winter, the lushness of the new season is a welcome burst of color and life. It’s a stark contrast to the barren tree branches that reach up to a cold winter sky.

“Easter spells out beauty, the rare beauty of new life.” — S.D. Gordon

“The story of Easter is the story of God’s wonderful window of divine surprise.” — Karl Knudsen

May your Easter basket be filled with joy, happiness, and peace this season and always.
🐰I hope you have an egg-cellent Sunday!🐇🐥

Beautiful pictures! My favorite is the bee–great bokeh! I’m sure that the desert will be parched when we get there! Again, lovely picture of you and your new granddaughter. Hugs to the family! Joe

Ingrid, you’ve outdone yourself this time – these photos are stunning! It’s wonderful to see you out and about again, enjoying your photography. I have a feeling you’ll squeeze every moment of pleasure possible out of your delightful southwestern spring. Please say hi to Al for us!

Hi Mary, thank you so much for the compliment. I wish you could see our desert this time of year. Granted, it’s still a desert, but so much more lush and green than when you and Alan visited. The desert was looking very sad during your visit. 🌵 I’m enjoying our lovely weather and landscape as much as possible with my camera before the heat engulfs us. 🤪 Stay tuned for more pics!
