plum blossoms#3

The harbinger for spring in my backyard is the ornamental plum tree. It's the first plant to blossom and sends me running for the macro lens. I'll have a variety of bulbs opening within a week, but I always have to have lots of photos of those delicate pink flowers clustered among still-tight buds with their contrasting plum-colored leaves. Although I'm still bundled in thick sweater and boots, these sweet blooms make me smile warmly.
