What a difference a couple of weeks make:

This first photo was take about 3 weeks ago. Spring came to Charlottesville and so did the colors:

See what I mean, notice not only the tree but the green color everywhere!

Here is the rear view from the deck:

Before Spring:

After Spring:

Any questions?

When listing a home consider the time of year....This is most important when you have four seasons.

Charles, very pretty. Color is important whenever you can use it and it's great that you recognize it.

Charles those pictures are quite a contrast.  At least you know warmer temperatures are on their way.

Charles, the Spring blooming trees are gorgeous, aren't they?  I just love the change of seasons.

Great pictures...did you "green up" the grass a bit?  I was up in the area last week, everything was blooming beautifully!

It seems that when spring arrives it ARRIVES with a bang overnight!   One day our lawn was dead, the trees were leaf-less, and there were no flowers....the next day (almost overnight) we have a tree that is awesomely full of leaves, a flower bed with lots of flowers and weeds, and green grass.   These are beautiful photos...thanks for sharing.

Spring jumped right into summer it was 80 here in Michigan. It almost makes the winter tolerable and spring is the best time of the year. Thanks for the Photos.

Charles, really love the transition from winter to spring in this area.  The red buds in the dogwoods in full blown a really beautiful aren't they?  Spring truly is one of my favorite times of year.

Charles, love the photos and this home. Beautiful.  Very beautiful! I love the before and after. I have a listings I need to retake the photos....all the Oaks are now a beautiful bright green. Nice work! I'll come for a visit....never been through Virginia!

Charles, I was in Charlottesville on Saturday for the marathon. The course was beautiful. We started in the Historic district, ran through the grounds of UVA out to Ridge Road and back. Dogwoods and honeysuckle everywhere.

Charles - You do indeed make a good point! For those of you that experience loss of leaves, update those new listings!

Craig, I may have drove right by you. Ridge Road is my walking road with my wife and in my back yard!

I live in Florida - spring is lovely.  I missed it last year - I was in the bathroom.

< sigh >

All kidding aside, Charles, I have friends in Charlottesville and have visited from time to time.  It is a spectacularly beautiful area.
