During Easter weekend, I was able to get out and take pictures for the first time since my knee surgery. I took an obnoxious amount of pictures of our ornamental cherry tree! Then today, after taking a week to recover from overdoing it last weekend, I went out and took some more! My knee is letting me know about it this evening. I got really excited today when I was able to get a shot of a bee on a dandelion. I'ts not as macro as I wanted it to be, but my knee could take only so much squatting.
Well, I guess that's enough cherry blossoms for now. I think that of all the flowering trees, this is my favorite!

I seem to be having trouble linking to Lori's blog. I'll provide the link as soon as I'm able.
Yay!!! I am so happy to hear you were able to get out and enjoy the weather and the blooms. Beautiful photos, as always. Just yesterday I was walking past a tulip and thought of you and how you would photograph it. Thanks for the inspiration!
