This is one of a few shots I took during this years National Cherry Blossom Festival. This years festival was quite dramatic in that the heavy winter snows we had, along with the rains caused the peak bloom forecast to shift several times before the festival began. This years peak bloom shifted from the original forecast of APR 3-8 to APR 1-4. This years blossoms were stunning and all blossoms opened in a timely manner. There was a combination of pink and white blossoms that lined the edge of the tidal basin. The weather? Gorgeous, simply perfect! The temperatures were in the 80's and the final weekend(that blossoms were there) saw temperatures in the 90's!
