This was a challenging exercise in timing, but fun! I am planning to try this again with two speedlights soon.

My Flowering Plum tree is in full bloom right now, and Bees are busy buzzing all around it collecting pollen. It feels far too early!

It will be 5 years this Fall since I’ve been to France. I’ve been 3 times, and there is still so much to see and do, and the language yet to master.
I hope to get back there and travel in different regions, but no matter where in France I go vibrant, and bustling Paris beckons me, and I’ve still not seen Versailles!
