This photo was taken in the Spring in Highland Park, Rochester, NY. It was one of those years when the season exploded with fragrance, blooms and greenery. It was so nice I almost forgot to shot images. :smile:

Larry, this is gorgeous. I really like the light in this photo with a good DOF for this shot. Also composed very well too. You've even got an "S" curve winding through it. Nice job! :toast: :toast: :toast:

Lovely image. It really expresses the joy of a beautiful Spring day. The flower season feels like it's around the corner here in Washington state. The cherry blossoms are starting to show colors.
