In my opinion, one of the most beautiful trees is a Japanese Cherry Blossom. Years ago we had a miniature one planted in our front yard. The window of full bloom isn't too long, but for that perfect week, it is stunning. I was at my office job on a rainy April day during peak season. I ducked out early to catch the light, grabbed my camera, and took one of my favorite photos ever.
