Mmm. That is an interesting comment. This is pretty much how the small branch entered the frame in my camera, which was in a landscape orientation and more or less level. Rotating clockwise does not look too bad though.
Dave, I reckon it's just a matter of preference or perception, I am not surprised you say it is how it was, it just seemed to me a portrait version would look better/ or should I say more expected?
Hi Dave, very pleasing composition with the slightly curved diagonal of the branch with blossoms. I would have preferred to have a more even BG. The greens provide an excellent canvas for the flowers. A small step to the left may have done the trick.
Can't wait for blossom season! It has been too cold for too long here....
Hi Dave. Again, lovely soft light, good detail in the whites, good overall sharpness, and a dreamy background that adds mood to the image. I like the comp as presented. A beautiful image!
