Hibernating Cherry Blossoms

Freezing temps early this morning with an overcast sky minutes after sunrise in Washington, DC. To compare what this scene will look like in 3 1/2 months, look at my upload from April 11, 2014.

Bring on Spring - those this definitely has a lovely serene look - you'd never place this in Washington, DC - such solitude today.

[Jane Anderson]

I remember your April posting and recognized the vantage point even without looking. It's beautiful in winter too!

was the tag meant to be tidal basin? Ir you want to put two or more words together in the tags you need to include either 'single' or "double" quotes.

[Cathy]

Fav! That's all!

[Margaret Obey]

What a great image. Love the April one!
