127 - Grass, Lawn, Turf
A neighbor around the corner has a lovely stand of bluebonnets in his side yard every spring. I had to get a shot or two, and this is the view from the street. His three little trees (about 7 or 8 feet tall now) are ankle deep in bluebonnets. They may be common here in the spring, but they're beautiful. I think they're about the best thing about Texas!

Wow! That is quite an amazing sight. I like how our eyes are led down the line of trees towards where the bluebonnets end. Not to mention the fabulous color!
ReplyDeleteWow, there are thousands of them - stunning - I love this!! (ok, where's the horse??) :)
ReplyDeleteI always read "The Legend of the Bluebonnets" to my students, but I don't think that I have ever seen real ones. This is a great photo.
ReplyDeleteGreat color, very pretty. A friend that lives in Texas told me it was against the law to mow these blue bonnets due to it being the state flower. It would be a shame to mow these.
ReplyDeleteVery beautiful! We saw some on our way across Texas but I never managed to get any photos. Love your composition on this.
ReplyDeleteI so wanted to see the bluebonnets on our way through Texas, but it was too dry. These are awesome, and to think it's someone's yard!
ReplyDeleteWhat a pretty scene - how wonderful that you have that view nearby. Nice capture.
ReplyDeleteJust beautiful!
