It's that time of year we, and all nature, have been waiting for - those few moments, relatively speaking, when nature puts on a splendid show. We are most fortunate that we have a number of different (non-domesticated) trees and shrubs scattered around our property. This evening I walked in the glow of the late-day sun and made some shots. Here are (what I believe to be) wild cherry blossoms. Too bad cameras can't capture their fragrance also.

Rick, you've got some amazing shots! It's also nice encountering someone else from Ontario. Check out my newly created Blog and follow me so that we can exchange comments :-)
These are such beautiful photographs of some of my very favorites of spring. Stunning light in the last one!
I love the last photo! :D
Wow, those are some awesome shots Rick. I love cherry blossoms! We had some outside my house that I used for photography. There were white and pink ones! I love the smell of them too. (:
Wow...these are great! I especially like the composition of the second one (beautifully done!).
Maybe someday technology will allow us to share fragrance. Of course, the photos are so lovely, I can practically smell them already. :)
