Nine photos that sum up spring 2019

Nothing says English spring more than a cottage garden in bloom. This photo by euthumia oozes tranquillity and really captures the glory of a garden dappled in sunlight and in full floral form.

This photo, taken at the Bluebell Festival at Enys Gardens in Penryn, Cornwall by Sam Hussey Photography, is really stunning. “What a beautiful sight to see. So much better than last year’s display. Totally blown away by its beauty,” says Sam. We couldn’t agree more!

Sometimes, a single solitary branch of blossom can say it all – and this pic from mbphotographydesign does just that! ‘Arguably the best season. All the blooms, the lighter evenings and the warmer weather creeping in. I’m loving it!’ says photographer Megan Brown.

He’s waving at us! We absolutely adore this brilliant close-up of a damselfly by chris_p_mcgloughlin, taken at RSPB Fairburn Ings Nature Reserve, West Yorkshire.

Glynn Furlong‘s image of a glorious rapeseed field shows a typical British spring day: a spot of sunshine, rain clouds, white fluffy clouds and patches of blue all in one sky! The composition of this photo is a winner; we love the path leading up to the solitary tree just about to burst into leaf…

There will never be enough close-ups of flowers for our liking. Love this from mandalobby.

Even the ponies start smiling in spring. Jessops Instagram follower choochek spotted this lovely chap peeping through the glorious spring greenery in Derbyshire.

You know spring is here when the insects are out! This colourful shot by nxoxvii plays with the gorgeous yellow tones associated with early spring.

We couldn’t resist this beautiful spring photo from Szerenke_cat; it’s one of our fave #catsofinstagram! We love how the colour of those eyes match the surrounding grass perfectly…
