[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
I wanted to take this photo of the cherry blossoms from their back side so that I could capture the water droplets on them. I did not crop it to the main one in focus on the left because I liked having the green on the farther left and also I liked the pattern of the other blossoms and the lines of the stems of the other blossoms.

This is so pretty! I like a touch of "fuzziness" in this picture, and the background is perfect (for my taste). :)

Tom, this is one of your best shots here, yet...
Perfect crop, great background, great details and colours...
Maybe I'd increase the highlights a bit via "levels", but this is all I can think of to improve it...
It really is beautiful... Well done!
Frank

P.S.: I've done a quick workshop, I hope you like it, but maybe you prefer the nice soft atmosphere of your version, I just increased hightlights and sharpened just a tiny bit...

Hi Tom,
You for sure have your own way with flower photography! I think this one is kind of different however, since you usually make use of empty spaces... not so here, where you literally fill the frame with those lovely creations of nature! I very much like the falling lines, and the soft well balanced colours make this one very pleasing to my eye! Congrats!
Regards,
