Before They Disappear

 
The roadsides and pastures are bursting with color from Spring's wildflowers.


The wide open spaces of Texas are breathtaking with nature creating these spectacular views. I wanted to capture the landscape before the blooms are gone for another year.

A close-up like this truly shows the beauty of each flower of the Indian Blanket, also called Fire Wheel.


Do you agree, a photo of the Texas Yellow Star would be lovely framed, and given as a gift?









The tight cluster of light pink blooms from the Primrose....









I would not dream of walking through the thick patch of flowers, for fear of stepping on a single Bluebonnet, the Texas State Flower.


Even a Claude Monet painting could not move me more, than standing in a pasture of Wildflowers on the Prairie....

  6. So beautiful. I used to play in meadows full of flowers when I was a girl; sadly they are long gone. When I last visited , the meadows had been built on and houses covered everything that I remembered from my childhood.

  7. You are so lucky to have a 'proper' spring with gorgeous flowers. Spring in the UK seems to have become just another damp season! Jx
