Cherry Blossoms at Dusk

Cherry Blossoms 2010
I love love love Cherry Blossom season in Washington.  I always try to go to the Cherry Blossom Festival held here at the same time.  This year, husband and I went to see the blossoms on Friday night – he had never seen them at night, and I think they are extra pretty and ethereal then.  Don’t you agree?

They are gorgeous! It's been many years since I've seen them first hand. Thanks for the trek down memory lane for me. :)

I love them, too. Wish we had a Cherry Blossom Festival – sounds awesome!
Over here in Australia, we're having the opposite – Autumn/Fall. And coincidently, I just wrote a post attached to a photo I took the other day of trees in the city. The post is titled "Autumn creeps in on dusk's shoulders".

Those photos are stunning. Still have not been to Washington DC – sounds like this time of year would be a good time to go.
