Ilkeston - Blossom
w/e 02 May 2021
All of this week's
pictures were taken with a Kodak DX6490
I've heard of the expression "Painting the town
red" but with all the blossom that is currently on display
it's been more a case of painting the town pink this week. This
selection of images were all taken at various random spots whilst
out walking through the town during the week.
This was seen in a front garden on Park Road.

A bench at the Jackson Avenue bus stop where Wharncliffe Road
meets Lord Haddon Road is facing the wrong way if you want to

trees.

There's another bench half way up (or down) Nottingham Road and
tall conifers shelter another display of blossom. It is also
easier to see whilst sitting on the bench as the tree is to the
side rather than behind but like all the other locations it brightens
the town for everyone passing by.
