The Promise of Spring

Leonard lens // Daydream film // No flashWho doesn’t love a cherry blossom? The sight of a fruit tree (cherries, apples, apricots, plums) festooned in pink blooms is surely enough to delight everyone – after all, it heralds the promise of spring. The sun shines more brightly and the birds sing more happily.

Last week I spotted this tree in a side street in the midst of a concrete jungle, and it drew me unerringly. I made a positive beeline (ahem) for it. Isn’t it pretty? Spring is coming! Hurrah!

Here are some more pictures (click to jump through) to make you smile.

And there are birds!
