I can still smell the air on that trail at Washington Pass, a perfect mix of cold and freshness, so I’ve been looking through my photos for some shots that fit with the fresh theme. Snow for me epitomizes freshness so I’m starting off with a snowy photo from Hurricane Ridge in Olympic National Park.
Everything feels fresher after a rain shower, with the added bonus of sparkling raindrops scattering light all around. This was taken at Bloedel Reserve on Bainbridge Island shortly after a cloudburst.
An inventive way of keeping roses fresh; a rose man in Rome douses his bouquet in a fountain.
Fresh berries at a farmer’s market in California, mmmm.

I have always been delighted at the prospect of a new day, a fresh try, one more start, with perhaps a bit of magic waiting somewhere behind the morning. – J.B. Priestly
I am so fresh in soul and spirit that life gushes and bubbles around me in a thousand springs. – Robert Schumann

These are lovely shots. I particularly like the raindrops on the leaf. You are right that the world always seems fresh after rain. Here’s my contribution: http://zimmerbitch.wordpress.com/2014/06/20/fresh-out-of-the-envelope/
