This is a photo from Ariochori, a village before the city of Kalamata in Greece. My husband is from there, and the odd thing is that in a neighboring village, named Pidema, was where our mother was born. Thanks for viewing and commenting.

The nearby birth places of your husband and mother, and the Spring rebirth of the blossoms on the tree, completing a symbolic relationship of humans and Nature. Birth and rebirth, a life cycle playing out before us, reminding us, the sun that nourishes that tree also kissed the forehead of the child you eventually married.

Vicki, your wonderful photograph made me curious, so I searched on the net for more information about the region where your husband comes from and where your mother was born. I've found THIS.
I couldn't find Pidema. I think the reason for that was a minor typing error, so I suppose you've meant Pidima however, a green village just 16 kilometers away from Kalamata. The natural wealth of the region is extremely beautiful anyhow. Your capture empathizes my impression.

A delightful shot, Vicki, and all the more so with your accompanying intro and the sentiment and history of this place.

Good work with capturing this and framing it with the flowering tree.
