Lovely magnolias at the George Mason Memorial, Washington DC
Every year one of the things on my "must do" list is to go see the cherry blossoms at the Tidal Basin, I can usually get there at least once during the peak. For the past couple of years, as part of my journey around the Tidal Basin, I like to stop by the George Mason Memorial and see the magnolias and forsythias in bloom. I always think the colors are so beautifully contrasted between the two. For the past two years, they've coincided with the blossoms which is a bonus.
Some views from this year's showing:

Washington DC's famed cherry blossom peaks 2016
The cherry blossom peaks are, hands down, my favorite time of year here in the Washington D.C. region. Last week the blossoms peaked around the Tidal Basin and 2016's showing did not disappoint. Today's post I wanted to focus on some closeup images.
(More photos can be found on my Washington D.C. blog which shows the peak viewing from more of a landscape perspective).
