I had been eager to take pictures of the newly bloomed trees since the day I got back from spring break. After waiting earnestly for one sunny day, hoping to capture sunlight’s warmth on the pink, white and green trees, these were some of my favorite shots captured as I made my way down Broadway to Washington Square Park.

While waiting to take this shot, I happened to spot a little blue bird and a red one resting quietly nearby. It felt like a perfect harmony between the vibrant colors of wildlife and the peaceful nature of greenery under the theme of Earth Day.

Long weekend.

Saw these on Easter morning, and my friend and I stopped and stared at them in awe for a little bit. They were the brightest colors on that street.
