Thank you so much for your time Philip, Judy, Julie, and Marsha! I snapped this photo yesterday, during a break in the middle of the rain. In an area where I live a couple of kinds of trees started to bloom, so my color hungry eyes are just following all those pretty pinks and whites. I simply can not resist going outside without my camera and capturing the beauty of Spring;-). Glad you like this one! Thanks!

Thank you so much for taking your time to write, everyone!

Susana – First thing – I apologize for this delay and not responding right away to your question, but I was really busy the last few days. The lens used for this shot was of course my Tamron.
