The waters of the Monocacy Creek spill over Monocacy Falls in a cascading dance celebrating spring as a fisherman takes in the beauty of a late April afternoon, complete with a flowering cherry tree to complete a picturesque springtime scene I captured in this painterly, HDR image at Monocacy Park, Bethlehem, Pennsylvania.

 

It's Cherry Blossom Time ...

“Came the spring with all its splendor,

All its birds and all its blossoms,

All its flowers and leaves and grasses.”

                 ~ Henry Wadsworth Longfellow

                              ~ 1807-1882

Sunday Stroll In Cherry Blossom Time ...

“Break open a cherry tree and there are no flowers, but the spring breeze brings forth myriad blossoms.”

            ~ Ikkyu
