Photos on Friday: Cherry blossom sunrise on the Tidal Basin

Visiting the Tidal Basin at sunrise is something I've always wanted to do. At cherry blossom peaks, even better. This year the opportunity came. Despite the harsh cold that interrupted this year's peaks, there was still a pretty showing. 

Today's photos on Friday is all about the cherry blossoms in the early morning hours. Photos taken on March 24, 2017.

    Stunning shots, just lovely. You would never guess that it wasn't the best year for blossoms.

      Thanks so much! It really wasn't as nice as previous years (2013 stands out, but 2015 and 2016 were great too), but surprisingly was still pretty in the pink.
