It is cherry blossom time in DC again. These are a few shots I took today with a macro lens. It was windy so I did have a fair bit of blurry ones. These are the ones I like the best.

    Number #4 is my favourite from this series Heather.
    Not easy to shoot MACRO in windy conditions.

    Some of these shoots look a little over exposed to me.

    Very pretty Blossoms indeed thumb.gif ... Skippy :D

    I like #4, 5, & 6 the most. I think it's due to the fact that they have a warmth that is missing in the first 3.

    The first three I will agree seem a littile brighter. Though I think the lack of warmth comes from the fact the first three are the white blossoms as apposed to the pink ones. The pink blossoms are warmer looking and make better pictures. Thank you for your comments.

    Yup, the wind can really try ones patience doing work like your showing here.
    Try macro, wind, bees and lighting and see what happens. :crazy rolleyes1.gif
