Ailsa’s travel-themed photo challenge this week is New.
The leaves of the old year blaze forth in a last burst of color. But among the old, at first almost unnoticed, are already the buds
that, as the last old leaf drops away, await the new year!
(Magnolias, Central Park, New York City)

Great images, Vlad. I love Magnolias. They are such brave trees, getting buds in the middle of winter. :)

They are brave, but not to the point of being rash, like a couple of fruit trees that started flowering last week just before the latest snowstorm :-(
