Blossom Reflections

Tree blossoms reflected in a window of building on Raritan Avenue in Highland Park, NJ

Photo was taken a few minutes before the photo of tree blossoms on the previous post, despite the protestations of my three children, who wanted me to leave my camera in the car. Life of a mom.

I think you are saying it is amusing how the window shows a different tree. (recalling my high school French)

I say, the children or the spouse has NO rights to camera taking decisions! This is beautiful! I am glad you took the camera after all!

I like it. Just yesterday I past by some blossoming trees in front of a brick wall and thought it would make a great picture.

James, thanks for doing this meme! Our whole town is blossoming, but many blossoms are already blowing away. I saw some on the next block that are all over the street. Oh, good excuse to run get my camera again...

Glad you liked it! Just came back from a traipse around North 8th with my camera. Lots of blossoms. And some construction, too.

One of the jobs of a good parent is to embarrass the kids. Oh Mom!! Nice shot. Looks like a Bradford Pear. Miss ours -- we lost it in a storm in the fall.

Yup, I do believe those are Bradford Pears. I saw one fell in the recent storm, but some smart person(s) planted quite a few on Raritan Avenue, our main street through Highland Park.

One just can't get enough of flowers like that. A double portion is just right.
