A holiday and blossoms

 Yes, I post things after they've happened, sometimes a week or so later.

Which one of these views above would you vote for including in my "calendar - if ever I were to make one? My monitor doesn't have HD resolution, so they look slightly blurry to me.







It was Easter, so I just drove around town looking at some of the beautiful trees and blossoms!


Looking down when standing at my living room window, and there are beautiful azalea blooms nested together.


I enjoy the blooming dogwood, of course, at different times of day, and different weather!

I just was gazing out the window, and only a tiny speck of the traffic on I-40 was still visible with the new leaves and blossoms hiding my view. In six more months I'll be able to see it again! I'll also look forward to seeing those mountains also!

      I am so happy to hear about and see the early spring photos beginning to come in on blogs from up north. I love my memories of the joys of earliest blooms!

    You can make a calendar with Shutterfly. My daughter does one every year that features family photos. I like the second tree better than the first.

    #1 is straighter and isn't cut off at the side. You could crop some sky, but I'd probably not crop horizontally as you need some room on either side of the grove. All in my worthless opinion.

    I'm not very current with my postings. I think you're not alone in this. Have a great day.

    Spectacular blooming trees, those are ones that I love to see in the suburbs during my walks. I think they're nice.
