Leap Into Spring Photo Challenge: Grass/Green

I am late posting this week's entry for the Leap into Spring Photo Challenge for Live and Love ... Out Loud.  I was really challenged with this topic.  Right now, as spring is upon us, everything is green.  Trying to make grass and green and interesting photo really left me feeling confused.  Being to to photography, I was searching for inspiration.  As luck would have it, my daughter had a Girl Scouts trip to the Missouri Botanical Garden last night.  If you haven't been there, you need to go!  It is impossible to not be inspired as you walk around the garden.  The beautiful displays catch your eye with bright colors and interesting designs.  The smell of the flowers as you walk along the paths gently whispers "spring."  The warmth of the sun on your skin is what you have been waiting for all winter long.  The sound of the breeze gently blowing through the trees, the birds singing their happy songs and the bees buzzing along creating new life with each flower they land on ... I love this place.

So here are my pictures for the category of grass/green:
