I'm joining Parul at Happiness and Food for her bi-monthly Thursday Tree Love. We are a bit spoiled for choice in Kingston at the moment with plenty of blossom everywhere, but also the buds of this years growth starting to push through.

The Ides of March
The Ides of March has always been a phrase that I have loved, without ever really knowing what it meant.

The scale of these trees is immense, and even having a carefully arranged person in the shot does not seem to… Continue reading ThursdayTreeLove – 57 Challenge
