    Oh, Jeffrey!!! This is soooooo beautiful!!! Do you know I’ve lived within shoutin’ distance of DC all my life and have never seen the Cherry Blossom Festival??? NOPE!!! Well, I take that back, I think I was down there at night, once. Does’t count, tho. I hope you realize how lucky you were with this shot in two very important ways!! One, the SUN was shining (usually the Cherry Blossom Festival takes place during ice and / or wind storms) and TWO … NO TOURISTS!!!! LOL!!! Or did you clone them all out????? hehe … sorry … I know you didn’t!!!! This is GORGEOUS and I’m sooo excited for you to have created such a lovely image for us to enjoy!!!!!!!!! A FAVE!!!!

  • Jeff Palm Phot... replied

    LOis your wonderful indeed for all of the kind things you say! Thank you!! No I didnt clone anyone out and I waited for about 30 min in the 35 degree day to get this…..I actually told someone to wait a sec before the walked in front of me. It was cold and a little breezy but really sunny!!! There were an incredible amount of people there. I was very lucky indeed! Thanks Lois!
