Wow! This is a more beautiful flower than the one I've posted. I tried to get decent cherryblossom but my zoom won't go as close as this. Great detail! Our pink cherry blossom is just about gone, it seemed to bloom early but then we got rain on it. There are still some ornamental whiter varieties around.

Thanks for your comments yesteday - really appreciated. :)

@Anne: Thanks...I have a few more views to post before I'm done: )
Ours are just coming in, it was cold and damp for a while so I guess it pushed back the bloom time. Gotta catch them quick though...one windy day or rainstorm and the neighborhood looks like it's covered in pink snow.

Doesn't it remind you of pairs of girls you knew in school? One flamboyant, one reserved. I think I would have called the photo, "So Who's Your Shy Friend?"

Lovely shot, Jen! I'm still waiting for our spring to warm up enough for the flowers to bloom... sometime in May I'd guess....
