Tidal Basin photos show a striking contrast between a January snowstorm and the present peak bloom.

I was at the Tidal Basin on Jan. 3 and March 21 to shoot photos to compare winter and spring scenes. During my photo shoots, I chose six locations for the comparison views. The differences between a winter wonderland and bursting blossoms are dramatic and are included below with descriptions.There are many postcard views at the Tidal Basin, but when I saw the view above with snow on Jan. 3, it struck me as particularly beautiful.

That plan worked well. The photos align well and made for nice split-screen view at the top of this post.I have always considered the tree pictured above to be the perfect cherry tree at the Tidal Basin because its branches beautifully frame the Jefferson Memorial with a front-facing view. I have photographed this tree many times over the years, and it doesn’t seem to change much from year to year.
