Today's another twofer. Continuing my mini series featuring Birmingham's winter look and combining the Two Things Challenge. The challenge this week is
New / Hope and for once I am beating the deadline! I think today's photos all illustrate
new growth and the
hope of things to come in the spring. As I have noted previously, Birmingham's weather during the winter months can be irratic, and we often have unseasonably warm days which causes some premature blooming here and there. I hope you enjoy these prespring show-offs today!
To see how other fellow bloggers have interpreted the TWO THINGS CHALLENGE
Today is my 200th Post! It seems like only yesterday we celebrated my 100th. Time flies when you are having SO MUCH FUN!!!

These are BEAUTIFUL & perfect for the challenge. Why didn't I think of that...we don't have such pretty buds yet. Congratulations on 200th! Here is to 200 + 200 + ...more. (it's lots of work & you gotta be having fun)
Well aren't you the clever girl!? Great idea for the challenge, and so beautifully done.
And happy 200th!
Congrads on the 200th shot with such a beautiful finish with floral theme
The top photo particularly appeals to me because of the delicacy of the small white bloom.
Lovely flora shots! I really like the blured background on the 1st one.
Wow! These are all perfect for this challenge.
Congratulations on 200 posts, Virginia! Your photography is stunning and a treat to the eye every day. Here's to your next 200 posts!
Congratulations ... and thanks for all your post!
Special thanks also for this phantastic version of Air!
Congrats on 200! Perfect with these lovely floral scenes.
Wow..such beautiful blossoms, particularly the last one.
Congratulations on your 200th. Here's to the next 200..
These sure look different from our branches here in Belgrade! Congrats on your 200th! My 300th is coming up in a couple of days! Time flies.
Frankly my dear, I don't give a ... wait, that's not right. Lovely, Virg.
Call me psychic. I was convinced I had read you were up to 200 but after reading your comments on mine.... Happy 200TH. My 300th is soon, but not quite yet and I recall my 2 was roughly your 1. Very creative take on the challenge. New growth is always a welcome sight.
These are all perfect for the challenge. Niothing says New and Hope more than spring buds, even in winter!
I'm gonna have to get my thinking cap on for next weeks challenge. D.C has "persuaded" me to join in!
What with that and 100 Strangers my brain will be mush!
Also, many congrats on your 200th post :)
Congratulations. It takes real dedication to get to this point. The quality of your work grows and grows.
Looks like pre-spring in B'ham already. I may become as envious of you as Julie in Sydney.
Congratulations on your 200th post! You rock, Virginia.
Love your New /Hope interpretation. How smart and perfect! Congratulations on your 200th - here's looking forward to 200 more many times over. Didn't think it was possible but you continue to get better and better!
Could we use the word "bellflowers" for your second picture which is really beautiful and "two" for two hundred going for three hundred hidden at the back.
