A family taking photos with the cherry blossoms on D.C.’s Tidal Basin spotted a famous figure in the background of their shots: former President Barack Obama.

D.C.’s beloved cherry blossoms at the Tidal Basin and surrounding areas reached peak bloom Friday and remain magnificent. Every year, thousands of visitors line the Tidal Basin and take beautiful photos of the display. This year, the warmest weather of the season so far has offered delightful conditions for capturing an array of scenes.

Above-average temperatures, gusty winds, and a March downpour helped bring an early end to peak bloom season for D.C.’s famous cherry blossom trees.
