cherry blossom - 桜

great flower B&W ;)

Love the empty space to the right of the flower. It is beautiful that because of the blur one cannot clearly see the other cheery blossoms, but one knows that there are so many more of them.

ああ〜〜〜、うっとり☆

Great shot.

Nice depth of field, nice composition! Good that the subject is off-centre, it looks more dynamic.

Such delicate beauty...lovely!

Thanks David, Ella, Navin Harish, Jacco and Micki!!
