Prunus Blossom in the Afternoon Sun - a photo on Flickriver

            Spring is starting to burst out around Melbourne, as the gardens begin to deck themselves in white and pink blossoms.  It's a beautiful time of year to go for a neighbourhood stroll to admire the beauty.  I had been out late in the afternoon on a sunny, early spring day the other day and chanced upon this prunus tree with some pretty pink blossom whilst on my walk.  

Luckily I had my camera with me and I snapped a few shots.  It always pays to have your camera with you.  You never know what you might find!  

Melbourne has experienced a colder and wetter than average winter this year, which will hopefully lead to a beautiful spring showing of flowers and blossoms.
