Happy April everyone! Is it me or does the energy of the season seem palpable? I love this time of year and from what I can tell from the spring buzz, everyone else does too. Because we, along with Mother Nature are bursting at the seams with excitement, beauty, hope, color, growth ( I could go on and on) we’ve chosen to celebrate with two words for our One Word Project this month; sparkle and shine.
Whether you find your inspiration from the light of the sun, spring showers, morning dew, bursts of bokeh or fantastic flair, for all of April we encourage you to join us as we seek out everything that sparkles and all that shines.
I for one, will be singing this little ditty from Steve Earle all month long.
Help us celebrate spring and all the sparkle and shine you can find today for our OWP (and Best Shot Monday if you’re so inclined) here in the comments…and all month long in what will be a very shimmering OWP Flickr pool. Your sparkle and shine just might be featured here! Fun!
What a wonderful word for this month of spring! Here's a bit of sparkle:

I don't know if this is sparkle or shine (maybe a little shine), but it did make me think of the spring sky…..the white clouds in a blue sky (reflected back by my blue car )

The following image is a bubble, which I have named, "Bubble Castle." I had bought my 5 year old son a bubble blowing gun and he played with it all day. It was fun to watch his bubble creation. If you look closely, I caught the 'pop' effect.
