March’s Photo Contest: Springtime

written by Thom - March 13th, 2010 at 5:18 pm

Kailani at An Island Life is hosting a monthly photo contest. Mahalo Kailani for this contest. I look forward to it each month. :) Direct from her blog comes the following:

“Every month, An Island Life will be hosting a photo contest with a specific theme. For March it will be Springtime

Here’s how it works:

* From now until March 17th, post a photo on your blog in regards to what “Springtime” means to you. Don’t forget to include a link back here so others can join in on the fun, too.
* It doesn’t have to be a recent picture but it does have to be one taken by you.
* Then come back and leave your link to your entry in the Mr. Linky below.
* The voting will begin on March 19th and run till March 22nd. Get all your friends to vote for you!
* The photo with the most votes will be announced on March 24th.
* That’s it!

The winner will receive:

* $20 to Amazon.com, Starbucks, or via PayPal
* An award button
* Their entry posted at An Island Life with a link back to your site

So start thinking about what “Springtime” means to you and capture it on film! Your entry could win you a great prize! Good luck!”

SPRINGTIME

Springtime to me, as does any other season, is best when you have kids involved and just enjoying a beautiful day in the yard and the memories that will be with you for a lifetime. This photo was taken May 25, 2003. So here is my entry of a nice Spring day. I hope you enjoy.

Please click on the photo to enlarge. Mahalo.

  3. That’s such a cute picture ! For spring time is the special smell of the air. It all smells so fresh and good.
    Otherwise I also could take a picture of the dogs running for females and jump over the fences. With cats we have no problem here because they are all Eunuchs.

  8. Okay, so the word “cuties” is being overused today. But if they had a picture in the dictionary for that word…..

    Today is being evil and tempting…it looks so lovely but the wind is blowing so cold. And there’s that stupid Daylight Savings Time thing. Hubby wants it to stay this way and change no more. I keep mentioning that people in Hawaii have more sense than to monkey around with their clocks. ;)
