Photo 25 #366photos: Blossom

25 January 2012

I promise this will be my last Chinese New Year-related photo (although the Spring festival goes on for 15 days so I could keep it up, but I won't.)

The blossoms were out a couple of weeks ago, probably too early, but had pretty much disappeared when I wanted a photo. Flowers, especially blossoms and narcissus have a significant role in the festivities of Chinese New Year, representing love, romance, prosperity and good fortune. I shall be dancing around a few this year, when they are in bloom!
