Bloomin' Tree

I'd planned to go out and paint today...but at 90 degrees—too hot. For me at least..
This scene (from a photo I took earlier this month) is a typical scene found in my 'brownstone neighborhood.' Cropping in close, I found the bright tree trunk, the light of the stoop and the window reflections from the street 'lit up' what could've been a very brown painting.
Oh yeah—the blossoms helped too!
