Pentagon's Spring

Echeveria pulvinata, my terrace, LivornoEverybody's posting sprouts and flowers, so I pushed the macro button and shot this photo on my blooming terrace. I grew several succulents and this is one of my favourites, an echeveria pulvinata.
Wondering about the title? Probably you missed one of my silliest post: “Inside the Pentagon”.

Io non ho visto ancora un bocciolo ma appena mi capita sotto tiro....
Bellissimi i colori di questi boccioli, quasi autunnali.

Spring is coming to the pentagon as well :) I checked out the google picture of Livorno, it is great to live and work in historical surroundings. What do they do in the white building where you work?

We tamper with identities of people,
in a late medieval environment,
using cutting edge technology
in arcane and obscure ways,
to the perplexity of most
and the satisfaction of few.

That's very pretty. Thanks for coming by Ocala DP.

I did go to your Pentagon photo. It appears to be an interesting place to work. I'd say you have a five-sided career!

Beautiful macro shot. You are right. Sprouting flowers are everywhere!

Excellent macro photo showing the opening of the Spring season as one flower begins to yawn open. I enjoyed your series on Montenero. Very picturesque. I am glad you also enjoyed the baseball photo on my site. I mostly talk and enjoy the sunshine during a baseball game. The game can go so slowly.

Great job on the marco shot. The flowers have not bloomed in NYC yet.

I will post them when they do although I don't plant anything in my apartment.

This plant looks carnivorous!

Could you repeat that job description again? I think I missed something!
