I forget that your seasons are opposite of ours, we are heading towards fall and your are heading towards spring! Love your set today! Your blossoms look like our cherry blossoms here in Korea; the 2nd is very well composed and interesting and the last one is so colorful!!!
Thanks for sharing these
Michael.

Oooh, did you take the first one in the Botanic Gardens this week? I was down there early last week and there were only a few magnolias and some other bright pink ones, but not these.

Don’t you just love this time of year when the trees start to colour up and the flowers start to bloom? The first one is pretty in pink and the two shop ones are great, crystal clear. The fourth one is very colourful indeed, it will brighten up even the dullest of days. You did a great job at capturing all of these.

Your obviously have an artistic eye for detail. Very nice work. The first one is my favorite.
