cherry blossom in bloom

This is for the Flash of Red February which is focusing on contrast this week. This is cherry blossom outside, in February!! that's early. I also have pictures of feeding bees on the crocuses - but there I miss colour, these white flowers don't lose from being changed to monochrome.

Three good things:
1. Eggs from the market
2. Sunshine, bees and flowers outside
3. beautiful sunset with glorious colours all over the skies and only 3 more days of monochrome.

Thank you for looking and commenting, you're all superstars. I try to look at your pictures rather than thanking you individually below
Works so well in black and white, good contrast!

Very pretty. My neighbour has a tree like this with flowers hanging over the stone wall that divides our two gardens. I have been telling myself that I should take a picture of it.

Fantastic focus on this little beauty, and a great subject for the contrast theme. I also like your Three Good Things.
Thanks for the comment shared on my old theater photo. Appreciate your visit!
