I published a really neat picture here:  http://www.gather.com/viewImage.jsp?fileId=3096224744106361 that showed a Gather "g" cloud in the sky in my neighborhood in Salem, Oregon. I promised you all that I would publish the rest of the pictures I took that day. So, here they are!

I hope you've enjoyed these. All of these pictures were taken with my trusty Kodak Z650, auto setting with no editing done.

Thanks so much, Dawn! I really like it, for an inexpensive camera... it seems to do the trick.

I love when the cherry trees are blossoming. Thanks for sharing Faith!

You are SO welcome, j r - They are already falling and are ALL over the street. It's actually pretty neat to see the tire tracks through them, but it's a tad slippery.

beautiful photos! hope you never stop with photography because i think you have a true eye for it.
Anne Marie A. May 3, 2007, 8:17pm EDT
Gorgeous photos Faith! My friend Amanda lives in Seattle and she told me the cherry trees are lovely there too.!
Lisa Lisa May 3, 2007, 8:20pm EDT
Beautiful!

Oh my gosh, these are beautiful...and the sky is so blue. I love them!

We've got little (medium sized?) Nanking cherry shrubs around the yard, and it is also cool to see them in bloom -- but nowhere near as spectacular as your blooms! I think we also get some fruits in summer, but the birds will discover them before we do. 'Brilliance on a budget,' as Roger Corman might call it. Thanks for posting these -- maybe my robins and your cherries should do lunch!!

Faith these are outstanding. I can't wait until our cherry trees blossom.
Bridget ♥ May 4, 2007, 2:20am EDT
They are beautiful! I love flowers and flowering trees! I can't wait for our crabapple tree to bloom!

Faith, I loved this article so much it is featured now. I just loved the 'g' picture too. :) Thanks for submitting to the group.

Oh WOW, Webduck - thanks SO much for featuring this. That really does mean a lot to me. Have a nice day and thanks a lot for the wonderful compliment.

These wonderful pictures bring back the odor of the apple blossoms in my father's orchard. I can smell them. This is just wonderful!
Wilma M. May 4, 2007, 7:28pm EDT
Wonderful pictures. I love any flowering tree.
Amanda "middle of nowhere" C. May 6, 2007, 8:48pm EDT
These are great shots...a good endorsement for Kodak, for sure!
Layla Morgan Wilde May 18, 2007, 3:41pm EDT
Love these, I can't get enough of these blossoms.
I'd leave a link for MY photo essay on cherry blossoms but you know how I am with links;-0

Love cherry blossoms, and the "g" cloud!
