Locust Tree Blossoms

Moody Bridge Road, Hadley

Photograph and text by Anne E. Ely, South Hadley,

Walking along the Fort River Trail off Moody Bridge Road in Hadley in early June, I noticed several locust trees (black locust, I believe) in full bloom. I used the medium length telephoto lens on my tripod mounted DSLR camera to pull the blossoms in for a closer look. They were so lovely I went ahead and captured this image.
