Pink Dogwood (fav)

Thought I'd sneak in one last favorite from the year for reconsideration. Tough call on the last choice, but I am going with this slightly reworked Pink Dogwood taken this spring at Fellows Riverside Gardens, Youngstown. D700, 180 macro, f8, 1/320sec, iso 400. Comments welcome.

One of the best dogwood shots I've ever seen. Reminds me of a stained glass window. I remember it well and glad you posted it again to remind me of the beauty of spring.

I can see why this is a favorite, Scott. It's just wonderfully airy and singing of spring! Happy holidays!

This is really gorgeous Scott. The composition, exposure, colors and DOF all come together for a treat to my eyes!

The trees stems provide the "graphic" lines that makes this one "flow", and "anchor" the comp nicely.
Pleasant spring look with very attractive color Scott.
