Nice!

I am a strong believer in the simple fact is that what matters in this life is how we treat others. I think that's what living is all about. Not what I've done in my life but how I've treated others. ~~ Sharon Brown

I love the branching of the Chinese Fringe tree, and this lovely close-up shows how full and bright the flowers really are! Awesome!!

I was surprised how much the flowers really show when it is in bloom. So many times, I think flowers get lost in all of the foliage. But not with this one!
