Isn't Mother Nature amazing, first she give you this beautiful flower and then you get a cherry. Lovely photo with very nice lighting and soft background. Well done.

Comment from DavidP
Rainier Cherries are a big crop in our area. Lots and lots of commercial orchards where we live and the Rainiers are a great cherry. Good photo of this very pretty blossom bathed in sunlight with all the water droplets. It's just waiting for a honey bee to come along to pollinate it! ha Nice image with sunlight and shadow highlighting the blossoms. Makes me long for spring time and blossoms here. Three months to go!

Wonderful eye pleasing, story telling image. Great back ground really sets the detail on this flower off. Very good focus. Thank you for sharing. Dale

Love it Susan, very good work. Like the back lighting, soft background, focus and frame to show the beauty of this fruit blossom. They attract a lot of honey bees.

Thanks a million for your complementary review on the Cherry blossom. I just hope the tree produces more than it did last year I only saw two ripen...The Birds may have go some before that.

Comment from supergold
difficult to say which kind of cherry it is, but your close up is excellent: sharp focus, nice backlighting and the water droplets as a bonus;
