Time Flies


Can you believe January is almost over?

It went by way too fast. I was walking to work the other day and noticed this Ume (pronounced Oo-meh) tree. Some of the small buds had already started to bloom! I love these plum blossoms, especially the dark pink ones.

Before you know it, it'll be cherry blossom season again!

The way you have interpreted a traditional Japanese subject somehow made me think of another interpretation of the same traditional Japanese theme by Vincent Van Gogh. But I like the deep pink of your blossoms better!

Van Gogh must of known that Ume is considered to be one of the symbols of happiness :) I'm hoping to get more shots as they bloom!

It's true time does fly but I am certainly looking forward to warmer days and beautiful blossoms.

Oh, me too!
