this is my first time shot as flower photographer ;-)

Let's welcome springtime!

It has, in the words of Homer Simpson, been a pretty lousy smarch here in Virginia (February was pretty gross, too). This past sunday was finally sunny, and despite the wind, I was happy to be trackside. CSX crews and Asplundh tree company have just completed a clear cutting of all the trees and brush at RO on the RF&P, opening up incredible views for the first time in years. In a picture perfect scene, Amtrak 203, the Operation life saver unit, takes a Virginia service regional south on a gorgeous afternoon passing early blooming cherry blossoms. It is indeed springtime in Virginia, and I am here for it.
