New buds from a Cherry Blossom are patiently waiting for their chance to flower.

As we head into Autumn from lets face it a pretty abysmal summer I decided to look back through my archive of images from earlier this year. Wow didn’t we have a lovely March here in Ireland! I don’t really remember so many Cherry Blossoms from my childhood although maybe I just wasn’t as observant then. Nevertheless now they seem to be everywhere. Spring seems to be about Cherry Blossoms now more then Tulips, at least where I live. And why not, they are absolutely gorgeous when in flower. This image was captured during a little walkabout around my local park which is drenched in pink during Spring.
