Bokeh-ish Camellia

 We took advantage of the 60* day and cleaned up the  mess our bald cypress tree made in the yard while we were in WV. The sticky seed cones exploded over the deck and back yard. The sticky prickly things collect on Sugar Baby's feet causing a great deal of discomfort. This will go on for several weeks. Every year I threaten to cut it down, hopefully one day I will. So, while raking I looked over and saw the camellia in full bloom. This is the most blooms it has ever had. What a beautiful sight. What a beautiful day!
