Wordless Wednesday~April showers

My Crab apple tree. My favorite part of spring. I wait from New year's Day the first day of spring until this tree blooms. I look forward every year for three days of the most gorgeous flowers. I think it's a shame it doesn't bloom longer. Some years we don't even get to see it bloom. Rain and wind are it's enemy. If only it would look like this all summer.....

P.S. This photo was taken without any filter and no editing. Just me and my macro lens. The way it should be.
