Is there something you photograph every single year? For me, it’s the fruit tree blossoms that appear all throughout California a little sooner than the rest of the country.

I’m always excited when I spot the first ones, and then it’s a game to try find them all as they slowly turn white, pink, purple, or red.

I have often trespassed into people’s yards to shoot the first ones; a little silly, I know, because they will soon be everywhere and I wouldn’t need to sneak around. I just can’t help it, though: those first ones simply take my breath away.

When do your trees blossom? Can’t wait to see all your photos!
