Budding Trees in Spring

It's amazing what the trees go through every year here: Spring (buds), Summer (leaves), Autumn (colors) and Winter (no leaves)...and the smells!!!!

Budding trees everywhere! These are in order so You can see exactly what I see As I drive through three neighborhoods Three very different neightborhoods On the way home from church The air is literally "thick" with the perfume Of trees about to get their leaves Back after a winter without them This kind is slightly different. I try to get three different colors Different colors in the same photo But really, most are pink. And white is the second most popular Love these deep reds And chartreus And lavender colored That color in the back is a favorite More white And pink And pinkish white To the East, there is already more green Nice contrast here Beautiful! Every house on the street has one Nice mailbox too! Closeup
