Apple Blossom Time!

Yes, spring is showing up in Western Oregon. I see some rhododendrons and azaleas blossoming out, and this old apple tree on our daughter and son-in-law's place now has some blossoms spreading out on its branches. It is a pretty time of year, even though it has been raining a whole lot so far in 2018. Once again I used the old 'incompatible' Vivitar 70-210mm f/2.8 for the shot.


This reminded me of the song by the Andrews Sisters, "I'll Be With You in Apple Blossom Time", recorded in 1941 - http://www.youtube.com/watch?time_continue=18&v=c4gyB-IWU00

Nice exposure, good color. You have blossoms whilst we are having another downfall of 15 cm of wet snow. Not much global warming happening our way LOL.

The Vivitar lens seems to work very well. I really like the boka.
