Flowering Pink by kannafoot

Flowering Pink

My neighbor has a large - at least 15-feet tall - bush that produces these subtle pink flowers every spring. They were in full bloom today, so I took this opportunity to photograph them. I've no idea what type of bush this is, so if anyone can identify the flowers, please comment. The green background is actually her lawn. I was shooting down at the flowers using a shallow DoF.

Post processing started with a brilliant warm filter in Topaz Adjust. I also adjusted adaptive exposure, regions, and contrast. A levels adjustment was added in PSE.

Here's the high res version in Smugmug: http://kannafoot.smugmug.com/Photo-Challenges/PAD2013/i-MGngznQ/0/XL/2013%2005%2009_0039%20copy-XL.jpg
That is Flowering Dogwood. Nice capture.
