Having recently visited the Morton Arboretum in Lisle, it was still very much on my mind when I saw Amy’s choice of subject for this week’s Lens-Artists Photo Challenge. You can never have too much of a good thing but sometimes less is as good, or even better. So here is my take on Less is More.
My response to my love of nature, my garden and local walks with my dogs.

Such gorgeous Spring flowers beautifully captured.
Thank you!
I like the flow of your photos and how some of them were paired – with the back drop and a close up – nice take on less is more
(welcome spring)
Thank you for your kind comment. It was much appreciated. We have had a very soggy spring so far but, in between the rainstorms, there is the occasional day that makes up for it all.
Creative way of pairing your photos – less and more!
Thanks, Ann-Christine!
Beautiful spring gallery for this theme!
Thank you for joining in L-A Photo Challenge. 🙂
Thank you for setting the challenge, Amy!
Beautiful images, simply perfect
Thanks so much, Tina!
Vividly interpreted as usual.
Thanks, Tom!
Wonderful spring blooms, Sue!!
Thank you, Indira! It was nice to finally get some good weather so I could get out and enjoy the flowers.
Beautiful collection and presentation. Visiting arboretum is what I can do everyday 🙂
Thank you for stopping by! I appreciate your kind comment.
Nature’s simplicity beautifully photographed. The second macro is simply wonderful. ❤
Thank you so much, Olga!
Such beautiful pictures, Sue! Thanks for sharing them.
Thank you, Sylvia! And thanks for stopping by.
Beautiful Images! I’m itching for warmer temps in Wisconsin!
Thanks, Chris! The weather has been changeable here. Just when you think things have taken a turn for the better, the temps dip down in the 40’s again. And let’s not even mention the rain! Knowing the way things usually go, we’ll be complaining about the heat very shortly.
Yes, similar weather here. It’s going to be a nice weekend then we’re back in the forties.
I like both your ‘more’ and ‘less’ photos. You have captured the beauty of Spring very well.
Thank you! It hasn’t been easy to get into the spirit of Spring this year as the weather has, for the most part, been rather miserable, but we make the most of the good days when they come.
