This tree grows in my garden, and I took this in the late afternoon sunshine today - I thought the light on the bark was nice and that was what I was trying to capture but a few blossoms got in and perhaps they are the best part of this picture. The composition is not great (cropped from a larger picture) but I thought the colours made up for that. No colour adjustment, just a slight sharpen. It is a very large tree, taller than our house.. .Panasonic DMC-FZ7.. Thank you for taking a look.Any comments are most welcome and always appreciated. Full size looks much better :)

Why do the pictures come out square when the lens is round?? Picture Purrrfect .
Lyn, Think the setting sun gave the blossoms a golden colour. The composition may be not that great, but it's anyhow a very nice image! Regards, Cornelius

Cornelius was here! Click HERE to see his work!
The sky makes a perfect backdrop. God must have known what he was doing when he made such beautiful things. Your photo is no exception. I like the bits of sunlight and shade. Very clear and yes my eye was drawn to the flower first.

I'll meet you at the edge of the sunlight, just behind the shadows. The Ghost
Beautiful light, and blossoms. The golden glow is perfect and so is that wonderful blue sky.

And I agree too! The golden blossoms against that vivid blue sky are a lovely combination.

Makes a great capture against the spotless blue sky. The flowers look sharp with the sunshine and the blue sky as background.

If practice makes perfect and nobody is perfect, then why practice?
I won't tell you what I gave it in the voting booth, but I can and will tell you that this is another one of your great captures and uploads. I am totally in love with that lighting and that it was naturally found is only a plus!

"The artist is a receptacle for emotions that come from all over the place; from the sky, from the earth, from a scrap of paper, from a passing shape, from a spider’s web." Pablo Picasso
You are right about the warm golden appeal of the lighting on this lovely tree. I wish I had one of these trees in my backyard. I'll trade you one pine! lol

You will be led to the knowledge of the internal things which are invisible to you, by the external things which you see before you. . . . Even so then, we can represent to ourselves in thought the Author of all that is, by contemplating and admiring the (visible) things which He has made, and ever brings into being.

Lovely shot Lyn. Lovely light on that tree and on the flowers too. Wonderful colors and clarity.

Your camera focused on the flowers rather than the bark but none the less, I like it.
