Here is another image of Witch Hazel from yesterday's walk at Long Hill Gardens. In this view, the yellow blossoms show up against the dark trees and the pale sky. It was great to see some signs of spring on such a dreary day. But that is what the beginning of spring often looks like. It isn't flashy. It is quite subtle and easy to miss: just a slight shift in the light, an almost imperceptible brightening, and just a hint of color. . . .
