Sunrise through fog, Skagit Valley daffodil fields, March, 2008
Dear March,
Here you are at last.
Blustering in with
songbirds and brave narcissus,
but trailing wisps of
winter’s melancholy
Teasing with
changeling weather but uplifting
with hints of
spring’s bounty

For my friends in the Pacific Northwest, on Saturday, March 24th, 10 am – 4 pm, I’ll be doing a trunk show at my favorite vintage shop, Faded Elegance in Snohomish. The theme is “Springtime in Paris” and I’d love you to come and say hello! More details to come.
And the newsletter will be launching this Wednesday, March 7th. You can still sign up!
Wishing everyone a very happy new week.

Beautifully calming photos. Completely quiet is what I'd imagine it would be walking along there… I have to say that I'm happy that March is finally here as this brings along the promise of some sunshine, longer days and Spring. Have a lovely week, Love from London xo

Hi G
If those daffodils were fragrant, it must have been heaven being near so many at once. I'm just noticing some of the changes on your blog, it does have a more streamlined look, very elegant too.
It's pretty darn cold here today but the sun has come out to warm us up.
There will likely be a big sigh of relief once your newsletter comes out, they take a lot of thought to be put together and I know yours is going to be spectacular.

What gorgeous photos! I've never seen anything like that before – the fields of daffodils. Amazing. It's been snowing all day here – typical March for us. Warming up mid-week but we'll have more snow I'm sure. Blessings ~ Pamela

Breathtaking, the fields of daffodils are so beautiful. Amazing pics. No snow where I live (Norway) and I hope it will stay that way. Welcome spring!
Linda R says
That field of daffodils is so beautiful. I think spring is on its way!! Best of luck to you at your show….
Hugs, Linda

A beautiful poem that describes march so well and accompanying wonderful pictures! Wow, those fields with daffodils!!!! How I'd love to see something like that in reality sometime. I'll just have to cross the border to Holland I think.
Bye,

I so wish your show at Faded Elegance wasn't on my work weekend! I just may have to call in sick:)
I'm sure it will be a huge success!!!
I've never gone up north when the daffodils are blooming, I always wait for the tulips. But your photos with the fog are so lovely!
Stella says
I love the crisp/frozen but definitely spring look of these photos. I live in the Northern part of the Netherlands and yes…quite flat, hardly hills and lots of grass. That field with daffodils took my breath away. Yes spring is around the corner although it has been raining cats and dogs here throughout the day :)
That scene captured in fog with the "silhouette"of a city within it is perfect. Well I can write for hours but I think I have been boring enough..
Another post to come back to, sit, stare and enjoy!

Georgianna, your blog makeover is lovely. I like the way you keep the pallet simple.
Wonderful captures! Don't you just love it when the sun plays with the fog, or shines on dark clouds. Some of the most magical pictures are captured in those moments, as you have proved here.
Sorry to be away so long. Later on today I'll try to catch up with the rest of your blog and that wonderful newsletter! Life has been busy!
