Photo Of The Day By Rajesh Jyothiswaran

Today’s Photo Of The Day is “Bard of Blue” by Rajesh Jyothiswaran. Location: Ennis, Texas.

“The purple-blue blooms beginning to poke through the fresh green foliage of Texas lupine heralds the start of spring,” says Jyothiswaran. “This year wasn’t a great year for bluebonnets. So when I found this place, I had to do my best to capture the scene filled with the fresh fragrance of bluebonnets that faintly reminds you of gardenias in bloom. It was chilly enough to allay any worries about the potential company of the slithering variety. There was almost no breeze, but the wispy clouds floating overhead didn’t stay anchored for the most part.”
