It might be a slightly frightening sign of global warming but for today, the first full day of winter. I am enjoying the warm color against the cold sky. Even if I’m in California the weather is stll gloomy, cold and wet this time of year.
I had already been planning to post this photo when Weekly Photo Challenge suggested the topic Surprise. I think this works don’t you?

The blossoms are so beautiful. What a surprise that they bloomed so early.

We can think of the blossoms as a positive symbol for the beginning of a new era. They’re even lotus-shaped!
