Yeah, so early this afternoon I took a crappy iPhone cam snap of this parkway tree backed by a church in Echo Park and ran it through the fauxtograph cycle wherein it emerged as this somewhat stylized shot (click it for the bigger picture), all to represent what an absolutely gawd-beautiful day it is here in the lovely 90026 and perhaps to brighten anyone it mighten.
My weather app is telling me it’s only 75 degrees, but it feels like nothing less than 80 and and something more than perfect.
PS. I used to know what tree this was, but it has since escaped me.


Looks like a Redbud from here …
great composition!
80.6 degrees. According to the Echo Park weather station on the wunderground website.
My guess is saucer magnolia (Magnolia soulangiana). Whatever it is, someone has lovingly pruned that tree; it’s just perfect.
Possible correction: I think that’s a pink trumpet tree (Tabebuia impetigosa). I was out biking and noticed that these trees were in stunning bloom.
