Hope your not tired of plum blossoms, but I thought I would conclude the Wild Plums with an arms-length view. At arm's length, it almost becomes a beauty-and-the-beast scene, with the tender blossoms contrasted against the almost grotesque tree limb.

Enjoy.

I find nothing in this to be grotesque, not even the tree limbs. I find the whole to be quite graceful, in fact. Quite pretty, Don and that sky is great! We finally have a blue sky, but it is not as deeply blue as this one.

I could never get tired of them when they're captured as beautifully as this. I really like the portrait style composition here, very nice:)
