A flower! by joansmor

A flower!

I was leaving the park where I eat lunch most of the time and noticed the trees across the way were in bloom. So I pulled across the street and parked. Treading across rain soaked grass I was able to get this picture. Again the focus isn't as clear as I would have loved because there was a breeze and I needed to get back to work so I couldn't wait for the breeze to cease. Still I'm happy.
Yes, a flower... and a very nice one too. The focus looks fine to me... and I love the restricted DoF - give yourself a pat on the back Joan.

@vignouse I wanted to water drops to pop more. Never happy am I. But thank you.

@joansmor you could have done that in processing... but you know this!

@vignouse You are right. Tired it was a long day. A story of being to hasty to post. Sometimes I just have to slow down. But I already know how to process I want to capture.

Lovely capture and beautiful shot! You could do a bird and blossom month too judging from your first two shots!

@kbird61 I don't have the patience to do a whole month of one/two things. I have to much curiosity right now. Have to try so many things.

That is a lovely shot Joan. I agree with Richard I think the focus is fine.
