Almond Blossoms | northern California landscape photographer

If you've ever seen an almond orchard in bloom, you've enjoyed a real treat provided by Mother Nature. Almond blossoms are the most delicate, pale pink with bright pink centers and have a gentle, sweet scent. Unfortunately, the blooms don't last very long. In the central valley of California, the blooms can be seen for miles and miles especially when you are slightly above the valley floor. It's really a most amazing sight. 

"When an almond tree became covered with blossoms in the heart of winter, all the trees around it began to jeer. 'What vanity,' they screamed, 'what insolence! Just think, it believes it can bring spring in this way!' The flowers of the almond tree blushed for shame. 'Forgive me, my sisters,' said the tree. 'I swear I did not want to blossom, but suddenly I felt a warm springtime breeze in my heart."
