Spectacular Cherry Blossoms

 
We lucked out last week and picked the perfect day to visit the cherry blossoms in DC.
 
 
Mild temps and a perfectly blue sky.
 
 
And being a weekday afternoon, not too terribly crowded.
 
 
Laying on the ground, looking up under a canopy of cherry blossoms:
 
 
Some of the blossoms are very white:
 
 
 
My favorites are a delicate pink:
 
 
 
 
A spectacular show!  Thank you, Mother Nature!
