This is a very lovely scene Ruben and you have captured it well. Did you use a fill in flash? The blossom is so lively that it is almost 3D. Thanks a lot for sharing. I have really enjoyed it.

Cem,

I'm pleased that you have enjoyed this capture, that's the whole point of this post. Yes, I used fill flash for the closer branches, perhaps a half CTO would have come in handy for this photo.


Asher,

Thank you! That's the EF 17-40mm f4L, wide open, lens distortion adjusted in LR.
Here's another angle of the same scene:

Nice images, Ruben.

I don't know what it is with me but with all social images, I always prefer to see them in B&W.
