Julia's Joy! – revisited
This week’s theme for Tara’s Gallery is ‘Joy’ . This is to balance things after last week’s Ugly. I found this quite difficult because in many ways, it would depend on the time, place & my mood. I looked the word JOY up in the Collins English dictionary & it said: ‘a deep feeling or condition of happiness or contentment; something causing such a feeling; a source of happiness.’
Armed with that definition, I proudly present ( with huge thanks & hugs to my wonderful photographing hubby!) my interpretation of ‘JOY’ – whatever, whenever, wherever – they will make me feel good!
Nature at her very best! She never lets you down to feel Joy!

Your right…how can a person feel blue when surrounded by flowers?
Those are so beautiful. We bought sunflower seed today. Seeing that one there it’s got me itching to plant them now. Very joyful.
Sunflowers are apparently easy to grow. I know schools often have a competition for the children to grow the tallest. good luck!
Ooh! I’ll look into that – spent loads on my last one, and was very disappointed with picture quality… x
I love the Dahlia too. Question: what type of camera does your hubby have??? The little one just broke my mine by dribbling into the lens (?!) and I want to get another before we go on holiday at the end of May. These shots are great and the colours are spot on – I suspect it’s a very expensive digital SLR????
Not expensive! It’s a fujifilm finepix. It has a large viewer so it means you caan really see what you’re photographing!
Thanks for dropping by!
It’ probably the dahalia! Reminds me of my dad who grow HUGE ones!
Very pretty, I love a garden filled with flowers….My fave is the first one, no idea what it is though…crysanth? xx
Lovely, spring is a beautiful time of year.
I’ve realised that more & more as I get older! Thank you for dropping by!
Owww, I love flowers! Nice joyful photos!
Thank you! Hubby takes a good picture!
I like to look at them from far. Too close and I sneeze and suffer from allergies. But the pics are beautiful.
I’m with you there on the sneezing! Some strong perfumed flowers do that to me even if we just share the room!
ah yes, joy indeed!
A simple idea but hits the mark I think!
I Love flowers, the colours do bring such joy after a hard winter
Such a wonderful invention! Thank you for stopping by!
Gorgeous! I particularly love the sunflower. Great job.
Taken in the Loire! Thousands of them there!
Beautiful photos! Flowers always bring me joy! I love this time of year when it’s all bursting forth!
My favourites are daffs! They are fab!
