A Shower of Blossoms

Uploaded: April 25, 2005 04:07:50

Description

These are blossoms from the same weeping cherry tree whose branches I posted a few days ago. I like shooting these from below with the sky as a backlight. it seems to give them a nice glow.

60mm Nikkor macro lens; f9@1/125 sec. No postprocessing. Constructive criticism welcomed.
