April 30, 2013 Photo of the day:
"Budding Redbuds"
I realize that nearly all of my photos these past two weeks have been of trees and flowers in my yard, but spring is so lovely and so ephemeral. It is a joy and a challenge to try to capture its beauty, as each day becomes even lovelier. After nearly six months of gray skies, cold, and snow, each colorful blossom and leaf, each glimpse of blue sky and fluffy white clouds is truly a gift.
