Cherry in Leaf

Of the cherries in my area some are finished flowering, some still in bud and some, like this one, developing their leaves.

I'm loving all the cherry blossom posts.
This one is lovely - great colours, and the blooms against the diffused BG are beautiful.

Like the similar colored background with the retention of fine detail in the cherry blossoms. Gives the viewer a feel of the profuse spring colors that surround us. Excellent!

The overall pink color feels like cherries and the leaves are a great counterpoint to the flowers.
