Last week while running errands and soaking up all that spring-like weather my eyes were amazed at the show of pre-spring blooms. Aren’t these purple magnolias beautiful?

On this particular day the sky was a bit gray, but the clouds were breaking a bit and long after I snapped these shots we saw blue skies.

Because of where this tree is located I couldn’t get close enough, so I used my long zoom (55mm-300mm) lens for this shot. Considering my distance and the elements working against me this picture turned out rather nice.

This week I’m celebrating pre-spring blooms! What are you celebrating?

Next month, I am participating in the April A-Z Blog Challenge. In order to get ready for it, then from here until the end of April, I am rolling my photo contributions and end of week hops into my Wordless Wednesday post.
