Spring in Anaheim

Much to the rest of county's dismay, spring has sprung in southern CA. It's tank top and sandals weather, and I took full advantage of the beautiful, warm, dry surroundings. The tree in my front yard and its cousins in the park across the street have about a three week window when they bloom. I've been drawn to photograph them, for whatever reason. As you can see, my time was drawing short; the new leaves were already starting to hedge out the blossoms.


This is the tree in my father's front yard. The small flowers drop their white round petals like gentle snow in the spring. Since it was windy today I had petals all over my clothes and hair. It was quite lovely.

I am a rank amateur, but one that likes taking pictures. ;)
