Back in February 12th and February 16th, I went out and took some springtime photos around Pleasanton, CA. I took photos spring flower blossoms, mushrooms, clouds, and wildlife. Some of the photos are from Pleasanton Tennis & Community Park. You maybe wondering why I am posting these photos so late. If you have been following me here or on social media, you would know my old computer broke down (so no photo processing), I had to set up a new computer, and I had to deal with some health issues. All the things going on in my life delayed my work by a very long time. I still hope you enjoy viewing these photos though. The photos from my photo shoots will be split into a few separate blog posts.

My Pleasanton Tennis & Community Park cherry blossom photos starts here. I took this photo because I felt the flowers looked great contrasted against the sky. I also love the mix of the blossoms and the buds.

As on my other blog post, I felt it makes a really pretty shot to have some of the other flowers on the tree in the background blurred out.

I did two zoomed out photos of the cherry blossoms to show you how many flowers were actually on the trees. There were a lot of flowers on those cherry trees!
