Jacaranda-ella

The first jacaranda blooms of the spring.*


(For those who missed it, please review last year's jacaranda project.)




Where did I spot this?

Where else? Yes, downtown L.A.


(Yes, that tree is the same one featured in this shot from last year.)


* The first I'd seen, that is; I'm not suggesting this is the first tree to sprout the purple flowers anywhere.

From a few feet away, to the side.

And from below.

And the best part: You still have no idea what this is, do you?
