Redbud at Night

I took the dogs out about 2 am the other night and noticed that the light that had been moved recently was shining on the blossoms of the redbud. I got the camera and tried a couple of shots. Had to work with it a bit to get the right setting but thought that the effect on all 3 photos was at least different.

Redbud and Sandias

Here is one of our redbud trees with a view of the Sandia Mountains behind it.

Redbud Tree Blossoms

the redbud tree is one of my favorite trees. They have these tiny, pinkish-purple blossoms in late spring. There are clusters of thousands of the pretty little blooms that sort of look like tiny orchids. The bees flock to them so they must be very sweet and loaded with pollen.
