I took this one a couple of weeks ago in the north western part of switzerland. I arrived there early morning before sunrise and waited until the first sunlight touched the blossom of the tree.

Nikon D700, AF-S Nikkor 70-200mm/f2.8 @120mm
1/13 sec, f9, iso 200

Thanks for any comments and thoughts.

Lovely shot and good use of the first sweet light to brush the subject.

The light and color are gorgeous Bill. I like your chosen composition as well.

Bill, this is a very pleasant shot, I really enjoy the morning light! The highlights on the trees in the background are a bit too bright in my opinion, and distract from the beautiful tree in the foreground. Maybe burning down the highlights would help.

Sweet bright and in your eye. I agree with toning down the BG a bit, but, this is nice.
