It's never the photagrapher! I'm astounding you would imply such a thinng! Lol! I will take the risk and say that I like this shot. I had a couple baby lemmon trees in my yard but my dog Daphne ate them. Lemmons and all.

im going to agree with cirquegoddess...i really loike this shot. You were still able to capture a lot of deatails, in many blossoms. it is so bright and happy looking. The only thing that I am not the fondess of, is the the only focused part is along the entire bottom. it does however make my eyes search for more in the background, so maybe I do like it after all! a very nice shot, and I am glad you took the risk to upload it! ~abby

Actually, I don't know if it's a mistake or not, but I really like the way your pic is soooo sharp on the bottom then gently softens & blurs as you focus up your shot. I really like the look of it, it's different & original, not the usual image of pretty spring flowering tree we've come to expect. Nicely done Marilyn !

I think it is beautiful the way it is. Thanks for sharing this with us.

What's the problem!...there's nowt wrong with this.....it is exceptional!..the light and composition is really great! well done..........

I think this is exquisite. The detail of the foregound blossoms is amazing. It makes a very nice desktop, full of sunshine and light.

Oh Marilyn this is a wonderful photo, the flowers are beautiful and must say for me it's up to your normal brilliant standards. Thank you so much !!!

I like the way you have captured a very busy subject without it being a 'busy' image! IMHO, this shows your talent, because I know for certain, if I were to try a shot like this, it would be horrible!
Very well done (as usual) :)

Very nice simple picture .... I like the lighting in this shot ... :)

very cool picture bravos!

Hello there Marilyn! Oh my, I am sooooooooo behind in my comments :(....I love this image. The close-up blossoms in the foreground are so interesting. This is quite an unique shot and I think you have a winner here...(at least in my eyes!). The color is very subdued for white and the lighting is absolutely perfect. You go girlfriend. Good shot!
Right into my favorite's folder on my new external hardrive that I got for my birthday ...also onto my desktop for a while here and I will run this in my screensaver slideshow program. Thank you for taking a chance and posting this :~)
Oh also, this is a "must view full size" to fully appreciate!!!!!

Wow! The lighting and composition here is absolutely stunning! It reminds me of those summer nights I love. The bright green leaves look beautiful also. Gorgeous job!

this is a lovely shot, the promise of fruit to come. I tried to capture the blossom on my apple tree, but nothing came out any where near as nice as this. Beautiful.
