Pink petals after the rain

Last night it had rained about all night. When I looked out today I noticed that the trees had lost a lot of their blossoms, most of them had fallen on the ground because of the rain and wind.

It was wonderful and rich to look at all those pink petals on the street and pavement. Their colour had changed from a light pink to a full pink after the rain.

In the pictures above and below you can see where the petals were densely concentrated, they were left in the spot where the wind had blown them.

From the first floor of our building I had more of an overview over the area and I could easily spot shapes and forms. I just love how these simple seasonal occurrences can give me joy and it is right around the corner, not only regarding location (right behind my house) but also regarding ability: I just need to be available and to open my eyes. Then I see the richness of the world around me.
