Are those iris stirrings? I took a walk around my garden and saw that the daffodils are starting to peak out of the earth. A welcoming site along with the disappearance of snow! I know I know we are to get more snow this weekend...yuk...but the greening is beginning!
Linda -- The blade of grass is inside a mini-greenhouse that once stored lettuce, backlit by the setting sun. Very soon we'll have to start some spinach and lettuce and cilantro. Yum. Can't wait.

IT HAS BEGUN!
I was thinking yesterday - "Surely there is going to be some green to look at pretty soon..." And there is some green. Gosh, it looks good.
I love the last photo. Is that the shadow of a bit of grass? It's so interesting - the image looks warm and cold all at the same time.
