Beautiful. I'm planning on heading down on Thursday, but I can't get there that early. I'm sure it will be a zoo by then.

Some shots of cherry blossoms with my IR camera at Tidal Basin in Washington DC shortly after sunrise this morning. I wish there were some clouds.
Thank you Tim. I would say about 60% of the trees at Tidal Basin are in full bloom today but even the same trees may have lots of flowers and also buds too. I am guessing the peak bloom will be either Wednesday or Thursday. It may rain on Thursday though. I will pm you regarding parking.
A few color one from this morning.
Thank you Douglas. Sublime, simply sublime images.

Thank you very much K-H!

I am impressed with your dedication in getting to the Tidal Basin at sunrise given how cold its been here in the morning! But you got the light for those beautiful shots.

You got some nice shots too Will! I went back this afternoon, took me 90 minutes to find a place to park (in front of the National Art gallery, had to walk 1.5 miles to the lake, too cloudy and crowdy, I didn't get one single picture that I like. I think Tidal Basin is really more suitable for early morning in terms of traffic, crowds and light. The water is usually calmer in early morning too.
A few more from yesterday morning. I am done with Washington DC cherry blossoms this year.
