I finished my "Seasons of 2025" photo comparison collage today at the Tidal Basin.

The tree I chose to photograph was one of the last trees at the Tidal Basin to produce fall foliage, so I had to wait until today to shoot it. It was worth the wait. @capitalweather.bsky.social

Another storm photo from last week. If you're wondering, it wasn't a direct hit.

Last week was certainly stormy. Here are a few shots from Wednesday evening.

Sunrise this morning was drab and gray, but at least the tulips at the Netherlands Carillon added some color.

I'm happy to report that Stumpy II is alive and well at the Tidal Basin. The tree is located on the north side near the Japanese Lantern.

Sunrise this morning as the cherry blossoms reached peak bloom. The lack of wind allowed a timed expose to capture the blossoms without blurring.

A stormy sunrise this morning. Light rain was falling when I took the photo.

Sunrise color hugged the horizon this morning as thick clouds moved in from the southwest.

Sunrise this morning viewed from the Netherlands Carillon. The color was fleeting and lasted only a few minutes before the sky turned gray.

On Saturday, I pitched a story about pancake ice at Great Falls to my WaPo editor. I had doubts that it was interesting enough to run, but CWG posted it with a video and photos I shot, and it became one of the top trending stories on WaPo. I was a bit surprised. Here's a link:

March 21 compared to November 4 this year at the Tidal Basin.

Cherry blossoms get most of the attention, but the fall color on the cherry trees is also stunning.
