Next up, we have lemon trees in someone's garden in a little town in Italy (left) and sunset over the Fraser River last winter when we had all that snowfall.
Well, these photos cheered me up quite a bit. Hope they took away some of the gloominess of your wintry day as well.
Now what would really cheer me up is if I somehow received the gift or a yacht or even a small yawl - painted yellow, of course. This one would do me just fine!
And if you're wondering how this post ties in with my theme for this round, here it is. Lorne planted and cared for the roses and daisies this summer. Also, he helped me set up the shot of the sunset over the ice last December ('08) and he used to have a yellow sailboat named Daisy.

Gorgeous submissions!!!! Thank you for stopping by my blog :)
What fantastic yellow shots for the Y day, Leslie! I know what you mean about looking for something cheerful! It's so gray and grumpy here in Seattle -- and guess I'm pretty much the same -- gray and grumpy! Ah, well, as Scarlet said, tomorrow is another day!
Stay warm!

Beautiful yellows! All of them great! Thanks for your visit!

Nothing quite as cheery as the color yellow! Can't wait to see some perky yellow blooms popping up in my garden this spring. Lorne does gardening, too? This man is definitely a keeper!
What lovely photos of flowers - beautifully yellow!
Iwa in Delta (where my cousinloves) 2 summers ago - and would love to go back! Still teaching though.
You'll have great seats for the Olympics!
Happy New Year.
Leslie, your yellow flower photos are lovely, but the sunset takes my breath away.
I always think spring when I see yellow.
It's been grayer than gray here, too, and your yellow hits the spot, drags up a smile!
Yellow always makes me feel better. Beautiful pictures Leslie. I love the sunset shot.
electrical banana indeed.

Yellow is such a good idea! I was going to do it too but I got tired of editing. So I used an old picture : )
Yellow is a happy color, and the bright flowers cheered up my dreary day. Daisy is a great name for a yellow sailboat!
What a cheery colour yellow is! Just the thought of it makes a gloomy day lighter. Good choice!
Ah, so nice to be reminded January won't last forever - these photo's are beautiful, fresh, warm and inviting. Nice one, Leslie.
Gosh, the Northern Hemisphere is getting a Winter and a half. I promise the Sun is still there, it got a chance to shine here Wednesday morning before the wind and cloud took over.
Sending happy Yellow Sunshine thoughts your way,
Michelle and Zebbycat (in Wellington's attempt at a Summer)
