So today I decided I’d look up to the sky again for inspiration for today’s photograph. Since it is also just a few weeks until spring (hopefully), I decided to get a picture of the clouds through the branches. These trees will hopefully soon be covered in leaf buds, though the hackberry is always a late bloomer in terms of leafing out in the spring.

I’m hoping that the winter weather that we’ve been having lately won’t have done that much damage on some of the plants that started to bud out already–namely flowers, but there are some bushes that also look to have some flower buds on them. But at least with the bright blue sky–there is hope that spring is around the corner (and hopefully not hiding behind any more winter storms).
