Afraid I don't know the variety of apple tree here, but certainly an old English one.

Apple blossoms are lovely and you show this one off very well, Ian. It's positioned well in the frame with excellent details well supported by the included leaves and twigs.

Ian - Just wonderful - like the patchy nature of coloration to the petals - how they move from dark maroons to light pinks. Background is nice and the composition with space to the left and bottom makes it looks so nice !

I like the shape of the bloom, and the little cluster of stamens. I don't love the top right corner, but I am not sure what you could/should have done differently.

Beautiful and artistic, Ian. I agree with Nathan about the ULC. Maybe lighten that area? Very nice as is though. devil
