It's a death-defying act you won't believe

I had to mask up to drop something off for the upstairs neighbors, so I took my camera and went to check on the neighborhood index of flowering trees.



The cherry blossoms have achieved liftoff!



Also backlighting.



Ready for their close-up.



I had previously believed this tree to be another, earlier-flowering cherry, but a bandanna-masked passerby spotted me with my camera and cheerfully told me to check out "the beautiful almond tree at the end of the street." So now I have no idea. It's pink.



Shadow tree.



Shadow ladder and reflection tree.



This magnolia just seemed so enthusiastic.



And I haven't a clue, but it was extravagantly green.

Today was the first day I've really seen a majority of people wearing masks on the streets—some handmade, some medical, some kerchiefs and scarves. Boston has instituted a curfew and the federal government is just straight-up trying to kill us. At the moment cases are predicted to peak over the week of Passover. I hope the holiday holds true to its name.
