Cherry Tree 2 of 4
I was in DC about 3 days after the peak, it was amazing how much of the color was gone (maybe about 80%). Even with with that much color gone the view was amazing!
Utterly gorgeous blooms which put a smile upon my face and light up the screen. This is a terrific perspective with just a hint of water through the branches. SOUL AFLAME @ February 9, 2010
Oh wow, I didn't realize they'd loose their color that fast. I love cherry trees. Portland had a ton of these too. Sure sign of spring that is. Joe @ February 9, 2010

Very pretty. I'm guessing the scent was heavenly. Or was it? Do cherry blossoms smell? Okay, now this is going to bother me. =) Toni @ February 9, 2010
