A big thank you to those who have submitted your photos of this year's cherry blossoms to share. It has been a very pretty bloom this year, and you've all captured it wonderfully in your photos.
Hundreds of readers have sent in their photos, and I only wish I could share all of them. But here's a selection of more of them. You can find the previous installments here and here and here. This is the final installment.
Thanks again to all who have sent in their photos!










































Local Charity Spotlight
Looking to give back? Here's one of the local charities (or with local links) that is well worth contributing to.
Cape Ivy
Cape Ivy provides warmth, comfort and support to children who have chronic or critical illnesses and their families.
Cape Ivy provides fleece ponchos to children in the hospital because robes, sweaters and jackets don’t work well with IV lines and other medical equipment. Cape Ivy is a resource for families experiencing long-term hospitalization of children.
I've had the pleasure of personally seeing a small glimpse of the impact this organization. They're wonderful people doing wonderful work.
You can donate directly on their website and learn more about their mission and impact.
Michelle Artimez, what a shot!
It’s been a long time, but that’s the composition I always tried for, and that’s my favorite of this the final bunch.
