Thanks Richard. The blossom doesn't last long, but it's so bright it's practically irridescent for a few days / weeks.

Nigel,
Very nice captures indeed. No real favourite but the last two are very sweet. The first two are far from bad but don't evoque spring as well as the last two.

Many thanks, Francois. It's been a nice couple of weeks here, and with the ban on airflights, the sky has been beautifully -- and strangely -- clear -- no contrails! London's skies are usually full of vapour trails, but this week it has been an oddly surreal blue canvas...
