[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
During our 4 day easter weekend we were very lucky. The weather in Chengdu was outstanding. Summer's here!!! After 4 months of grey sky.
So on Saturday we went to the Peach Flower Festival, half an hour away from here. Farmers put tables between the trees and people play mahjong and have lunch.
We just had a long walk away from the busy part and took pictures. Of course we had lunch as well under those beautiful blossoms.
Enjoy spring.
David

Hi David,

You paint a beautiful picture, both in your note as well as in your photo.

Nou na zoveel maanden grijs nederlands weer in China, heb je wel een zonnetje verdiend!
Prettige Easter Monday,

The diagonal composition is ideal and the contrast between crisp details and soft bokeh is perfect -- very 3-D effect

Héél mooi van kleuren en scherpte David.
Voor mij ( mijn monitor ) had het iets helderder gemogen
maar, dat zijn " punten na de komma ".

Groetjes

So happy to hear that you have such lovely weather there David!
and it's great to see the flowers come to bloom.
Over here the first flowers have also come to bloom, but in the grey weather we somehow seem not to notice them and before we know it it'll all be over and we'll be in hot sunny days.....(well, let's hope we'll have some hot sunny days this summer...)

Great colors and sharpness on these flowers David...

Cheers,
Anneke

Hi David,
So you'r up and running again. Nice delicate image of this wonderful blossum! Maybe a tad to dark, but the pink is excellent shown. A fine posting my friend!

"DE" bloem van de chinezen
de wilde kers .MOOI

Very nice--glad you had a chance to go on an outing. I would understand it if you gave the mahjong a miss.

Bonjour David,

Très jolies fleurs, les couleurs sont très douces et agréables.
Il y a peut-être un peu trop d'espace à droite,mais pas grand chose.
Amicalement,
Olivier

Beautiful sprinf flower. You can see this flower on my page.

A great icon of spring - I like the DOF you've used which isolates the flower perfectly. Colours are bright and well saturated and details are sharp - simple but really effective picture.
Thanks for sharing
Mark
