My laburnum tree flourishes in the last week of May or first week in June, and some years you get ideal conditions to photograph it. This would be from late 90s with the Konica FC1, and didn't Fujichrome really sing with a polariser in good light?

It's the early 1980's, me parents on the loungers enjoying summer, as you do...
Yashica FX-D, dunno what lens, Kodachrome 64, scanned with a dodgy Nikon slide scanner many years ago.
