What a gorgeous image, just perfect IMO. Great bokeh, such sweet little blossoms and then the buds. Lovely colors, too.

Classic thirds comp, well positioned POF, appropriate DOF, sweet, soft BG and a triad of Nature's colors—well taken! :toast:

It is not easy to take a good photo of these minimal flowers but you did it. I love the low saturation of the sky blue and the composition; less the high lights on the leaves behind the flowers.

This works very nicely for me, Bernie. I like your DOF in this scene; all the important elements are in focus. also like the soft BG here.

Beautifully done, Bernie ! These flowers are so difficult to isolate effectively, and yet that is just what you have achieved here. Excellent dof and the perfect composition and background.
