A photo story

Azaleas in Nacogdoches

Laura in front of a wall of magenta azaleas in Nacogdoches, Texas, at the end of March 2025. The bushes were taller than she is and covered in blooms, with tall pines going straight up behind them and petals scattered all over the path. It was a warm day, around 79 at late morning, under a cloudy sky, with a breeze around 13 miles an hour.

Nacogdoches is known for those spring azaleas, and the bushes were in full bloom when we walked through. I just had her stand in front of them and took the photo.
