Apple Tree Flower
OK, I think this is an apple tree flower, so if you know for sure, post a comment and let me know.
As for the story -
This one is pretty simple. I don’t do a ton of macro shots, but in the spring, I just can’t seem to resist dragging out the 200mm macro lens and hitting the blossoms a bit.
The tree I found was just full of new flowers, but I wanted something special. I noticed as the sun rose, the light spilled across the flowers above where I was standing and added some drama. With that in mind, I picked an area I thought would look good and waited for the light to be juuussst right. Then, between little bursts of wind (even a little wind is like a tornado when you’re doing close-ups) I managed this shot.
My wife says it’s one of her favorites, so I had to share it with you.
About Our Prints....
We currently sell both individual prints and completely framed and ready-to-hang prints. Our framed prints are professionally matted, mounted and framed.
Here's a sample of our basic mat and frame:
Framed prints purchased though us are generally a better deal than taking a loose print to your local frame shop since we have a pretty significant discount that we pass along to you. When you receive your print in the mail, it's ready to hang and even comes with the hardware for doing so.
Please note that if you'd like another type of print (canvas for example) or another frame style, we can certainly accommodate you, just use the contact us page and we'll customize the artwork to make it perfect for your home.
Warranty
Our framed prints are guaranteed for as long as you own them against wear, fading, or deterioration. Loose prints are also guaranteed for as long as you own them provided you have them framed under glass using archival materials. We want you to LOVE your prints, so we offer a refund as long as the print or framed print is returned in like new condition within 30 days.
Signature
All prints are signed in one of the lower corners (usually the right hand corner).
Delivery
Delivery time varies and depends on a number of factors, but we always strive to get your prints delivered to you as quickly as possible. I personally inspect each and every piece before it leaves our building. If I'm out of town taking more photos, it can cause a delay, but a good rule of thumb is that a loose print will ship within 2 weeks and a framed print within 3 weeks. That time is significantly shorter if I'm in town at the time the order is placed. If you need a print done by a certain date, you can contact me and I'll be happy to give you an estimated delivery date.
Discounts
We are now offering quantity discounts if you are interested in two or more pieces. Simply contact me with the sizes and names of the images you are interested in and I will be happy to get you a quote. The more pieces you order, the better the discount.
Thanks for your interest!

Well, I’m thinking that since it’s Spring, it’s probably an almond blossom since these trees tend to bloom first. In any case, it’s a lovely picture. Well done.
We had an early Spring here in March and now the weather has turned colder and the rain has started…not just April showers, but full storms with thunder rumbling around.
It is very pretty, and I wish we had enough sun here to warm things up so growth, trees, flowers and what have you, would bloom. However, I still like the waterfall picture best.
