The theme of this week’s WordPress Weekly Photo Challenge is HALF-LIGHT. We have been asked to share a photograph inspired by a favorite poem, verse, story, or lyric.
These photos remind me of a favorite Rogers and Hammerstein song It Might As Well Be Spring.
A cherry tree starting to open in the half-light of a gray afternoon in a misting rain:
Itoh peony ‘Bartzella’ poking up, as if to say, “Here I am, so it might as well be spring.”

Great photos…..your spring is a bit earlier than ours… the daffodils were about to bloom in my world last week, hopefully they’ll be blooming soon. Have a great day.

Thank you, Clay. Our world is now showing dogwoods and cherries and wisteria. It all goes by so quickly, but spring is certainly a fun and uplifting time. Your turn is coming.

I have to wait to see if my peonies made it. They always do but I lifted a lot of them and put 18 more inches of soil under them. I live in the dunes…laid 6-8″ of soil in my gardens but when those peony roots hit the sand they went sideways and refused to bloom. I tried the digging out a bushel of sand and replacing it with soil with one peony first as it was such hard work. The pay off was brilliant so I girded my loins, bought a shed load of soil and did the rest. I’m eager for June. It should be spectacular.

Sounds like an incredibly heavy effort. The peonies are worth it; I have put mine in raised beds.

The magnolia tree in a park near us has just come into bloom and the blossoms in your post reminds me of that. What beautiful flowers on the cherry tree. Awesome.
