“The month of May was come, when every lusty heart beginneth to blossom, and to bring forth fruit; for like as herbs and trees bring forth fruit and flourish in May, in likewise every lusty heart that is in any manner a lover, springeth and flourisheth in lusty deeds. For it giveth unto all lovers courage, that lusty month of May.”
– Sir Thomas Malory

Every week I’m so jealous of your photography skills AND your yard! I just love the expression on your face.
Ha! This is not my yard, I wish…. this is a woodland near to me

Oh im all for a lusty May.
Lovely photo, agree with SweetWoman…wonderful photography skills 🙂
A timely post in some respects, with the mention of courage, as I’m finding I’m in need of a lot of that these past couple of weeks
Wonderful image, I do love your outdoor shots so much

i love the lusty spirit of this, especially since my birthday is in may!!!
May does bring out the lust in biker hubby!
This is so beautiful!
Beautiful. I also often wonder how you get some of your shots, as you have said you often go out alone to do them. I know about remote releases, of course, but the technical side. Do you take multiple shots at different setting to get the one you want, or are you a genius? 🙂
If it’s anything like me when I do the odd outdoor shoots it usually takes lots of practice shots (with the clothes on) trying to get frame and focus right before trying for “the one you want” without the clothes, hoping that no-one comes along to mess up the setup!
Hahaha…. yep, I am totally a genius! *snort giggles
And you have given me a perfect topic for a blog post or two… but in short. I nearly ALWAYS go out alone, I prefer it that way and I take set up shots working on light and framing without me in them, then shots with me in them with my clothes on and then I go for broke. I usually get so wrapped up in the last bit that tend to forget I am naked or nearly naked and work away quite happily until I A. Get the shot, B. Get too cold C. Get bored or D. Someone comes along

That’s a picture that really invokes the spring feeling!
I love the bluebell season brings back happy memories of a friend of mine who passed away last year (was a wonderful photographer) who loved the bluebells.
You in the background with with little white slip with the bluebells in front and you have a beautiful image. I love how you have the bluebells in focus and you out of focus.
Stunning yet again Molly.

Sexy. Spring. Beautiful. Warmth. Sensual. Hot.
All words that sprang to mind when I saw this image.

I always love your outdoor shots. Reminds me that the days are getting warmer.

Someone certainly looks lustful there!
I’ve been waiting for the weather to be warm enough to be naked (or nearly so) again… now just need the right opportunity 😉

The expression on your face is my favorite part of this beautiful shot!
so beautiful and an absolute perfect representation for awakening and embracing nature! I love how you arch and the colorful flowers complementing you.
I wish I could be in grasses and flowers, I break out in hives immediately.
There is something quite wanton . . . and yet almost lustfully satisfied, release about this photograph. And the bluebelles in the foreground just seem to emphasize that imagery. Lovely!!!

This is so beautiful. I love bluebells. You have captured so much of the beauty, vitality and sensual delight of spring.
I like how the flowers provide focal points by their height.
Words fail me right now, mostly because you’re the perfect, sensual vision and embodiment of Spring.
Once again, a stunning photograph that leaves me more than a little grateful for your talent.

This is just so full of joy!
The colours, composition and pose are just perfect.
I’ll be thinking of this all day and smiling x
Simply gorgeous! I love the way the tops of the bluebells follow your shape. And if course the arch of your back is sexy as hell. Your pose seems to be worshipping nature. I love it!
Oh bluebells, they (and you) are just gorgeous. I hate not having them close to me any more, or at least none that I have found.
Ah, the beautiful bluebells! Love the little insight into how you work too – look forward to the blogs! Xx
Mmm… Being a jet lagged eejit – beautiful you too!!!
I love how you are pushing your chest out. The curves of your body truly make this picture in my opinion.
I love this shot, so open, such a breath of air, you can almost feel the breeze across your body. Beautiful.
Simply beautiful. Love the focus 🙂

I love the way your body seems to be bursting forth and echoing all those gorgeous Spring flowers xx
As much as my eyes are drawn to your lovely body and your devil-may-care posture, I detect something not unlike serenity on your face. Beautiful.
You always take the most beautiful pics with flowers and grass. So serene!
