Flowers are always beautiful.

Flowering trees have a special allure to them.

And even more fantastical are wild growing flowering trees.

Wild Dogwood Trees are among my favorite plants.

I appreciate every opportunity I have to photograph their beautiful blossoms.

The flowers don’t last very long after they emerge in early spring.

I am fortunate enough to have some that grow right near my house, but I am always excited to be visiting someplace new and stumble across Dogwood Trees in the wild.

Photo details: Nikon D300. Tamron 18-200mm f/3.5-6.3. Focal length 200mm. ISO 320. 1/800 sec. f/8.

Thank you for joining me on the blog today for a look at one of my favorite trees.
