Yosemite and More

Since the Almond Blossoms are beginning to wane I thought it might be time to edit and post a few of my photos. I had decided that I had too much to do and had probably thousands of almond photos and so this year I would skip the annual blossom. Well that lasted until the other day when I was headed to Home Depot, turned around, got my camera and ............. What really caught my eye was all the water that had accumulated in this one particular orchard. While the water wasn't exactly clear it still provided a nice reflection. Then I turned around and saw this fence. While this photo doesn't have Almond Blossoms it does have trees and wonderful puffy clouds. And last but not least Blossoms and Puffy Clouds.

It's been raining and very windy. Last Saturday I decided I better go food shopping. I went about 1/4 mile turned around and got my camera. A couple of days earlier the Almonds were just beginning to bloom. They still have several weeks left. Soon the peaches, nectarines, and lots of other stuff including wild flowers will begin to bloom. For now I'll share these. The clouds were pretty good, but were changing constantly. I wanted to use my macro lens but there was just enough breeze to make it very hard, so I settled for this one. Every year more and more of this are is planted with almond. There are several different varieties of almonds. I'm not sure if this is an almond orchard or some other tree nut. Here's an independent one. Go, See, Enjoy and Photograph Dave
