Mom's Favorite Tree


I've been visiting the Cherry Blossoms along the Tidal Basin for six years now and I don't have a favorite tree. I love them all. My mother, on the other hand, only visited once and picked a favorite on her first trip. We were just walking on the path around the Basin and she exclaimed, "That's my favorite one!" and pointed to this tree. Today's image is a close-up of one of its branches stretched over the water. After photographing this tree and moving on, I fully expected her to name more trees as her favorite, but she held firm. I can't fault her choice though. It is a very beautiful Cherry Blossom tree that is well-positioned on the Basin.
