Spring Equinox


Today is the Spring Equinox (Northern Hemisphere).  To celebrate I took some photographs during my lunch hour at Dublin Castle and in the park next to St Patrick's Cathedral.  The day was a bit dull but the flowers were lovely and bright. 



I can see these trees from my office window.  They have been beautiful this year,   


This tree (the first picture is a close up of it) is directly in front of my desk.  I see it from behind though so I don't get to enjoy looking at the pretty seating area.


This is the view from my desk overlooking Dublin castle.  I love it as it changes with the seasons and I can watch people coming and going (mainly tourists) as they enjoy the castle garden,

The following photographs are all of the little park next to St Patrick's Cathedral.

So very beautiful! You are weeks ahead of us, we will not see blooms like this for another month. The primrose and daffodils are gorgeous! What lovely images of the city!

Fancy looking out at Dublin Castle! I don’t think I would get any work done with that fantastic view. The pots and beds in the park gardens are beautiful as are the blossom trees. The blossom on the first tree looks like snow. Lovely photos thank you for sharing them. Happy spring!

Hi Sharon,

Amazing photos of spring! I stopped over from Flowers on Saturday. Spring has finally arrived in my area. How fortunate of you to be able to take a stroll during lunch time and see these beautiful blooms. Have a great week!
