The morning started off rather dismal - swirls of soupy fog dominated the roads this morning, slowing down rush hour traffic and making a crossing of the Verrazano Bridge seem almost surreal, with Manhattan invisible in the mists. But then the sky cleared, the sun was bright... and our landlady's tree really began showing off its pretty pinks.

Sunny and 72. Talk about Heather-weather.

I liked the idea of taking this shot of the tree through our window, above the blossoms. How often do you really look down on a tree? Then I sat outside on the stoop for a few minutes, just basking in the sunshine of the day. (Then I went back to work indoors - I can't escape from my classwork for more than a few moments at a time. At least I had some windows open to bring in some lovely fresh spring air!)
