Monthly Photo Contest for April: Spring

[Saxonbowman]

Although @amateur came up with an excellent theme there were no takers for the February/March photo challenge. Rather than concentrate on all four seasons, let's see if we can come up with some Spring-themed photos. It's been done before but hopefully many of you will find some signs of spring where you live in April.

Entries may be submitted from now until April 20. We'll then have five days to vote. The winner should post a theme for May by May 1, or earlier. Although we prefer new work you may submit something from you archives. Folks in the Southern Hemisphere may post autumn photos if you like.

Let's see what you have!

I photographed this door today on my way to work. I have real spring weather in my city today.

I found this photo in my archive. The picture was taken several years ago in April on the banks of the Volga River.

I don't think anyone wants to see a picture of a bunch of used tissue papers after I clear my allergen-infused sinuses.

Sadly...that has been my Spring.

Just kidding. The sun peaked out a bit this morning, where I'm staying at an AirBnB in Jackson County, Kentucky.

Took this today.
Ramps, a.k.a. wild leeks, Allium tricoccum .
They grow in composted leaf litter in full sun,
which means that their season ends as soon as the trees get their leaves.

I ate some of those for dinner tonight.

Viennese Goulash.. Looks excellent, my friend.

A local walk for me today, me and the Bedlington Terrier boys Oscar & Boris father & son, Morlais limestone quarry, it's left a scar on the landscape a memory of when my hometown was the largest steel and iron-producing capital of the world, at the heart of the Industrial revolution, some say it was the heart of the Industrial revolution.

Today I walked in the city park. There are no leaves on the trees yet. The first flowers appeared.

Park employees are preparing the rides for the opening.

I found these photos in my archive. The footage was taken with a primitive Canon camera.

Today I visited an exhibition where toys produced in the Soviet Union were presented. As well as handmade dolls. I suggest you look at the photos taken at this exhibition.
