POTD - Redbud Blooms
This Spring has been a spectacular one for blooming trees! I've been admiring the redbuds everywhere, but they are often such scrawny looking trees when they are blooming since the flowers are so close and tight to the branches. This makes them more difficult to find a "photo worthy" shot of them - beautiful to see in person and along the roadside, but hard to make a pretty picture. I spotted this particularly vibrant redbud by the road as the sun was peeking in between clouds near sunset on what had been a very cloudy day. I took several shots from different angles, but was drawn to the way the backlighting makes the blooms pop in this one. Just another example of how I'm always chasing sunlight - even on a cloudy day!
