Spring Amidst the Orchards

Spring has arrived in the Kammanassie valley, and we have been awed and inspired by the loveliness of this season. Because we are living among the orchards, we've had the enormous privilege to watch the fruit trees' stunning blossoms emerge and I've taken many pictures. This post includes mainly snow white plum blossoms, light pink apricot orchards and pink peach trees. So turn your face towards the sky, take a breath, and smile. Here follows some flowers to celebrate the beauty of a new beginning.

First comes the buds.... 

Apricot buds.

Plum buds. 

Then the blossoms explode.

 Apricot orchards...

Peach orchards...



But as green emerges, the other colors fade...
