I'm not sure if these are really cherry blossoms, they may be plum blossoms. Anyone with any blossom knowledge is free to help me clarify this matter. All I know is that they're pretty gorgeous.
I tried a new edit on this photo below. What do you think?

The 2nd one looses the color of the petals as they blend into the background. Although the darker shades appear to stand out a little more, in general the first is better. There are ways to keep mask the parts to brighten or intensify other parts with layers. It reminds me of cherry but a bit different. I can often tell by the bark, you might make that comparison.
ReplyDeleteI have no idea what kind of bloom this is, but it is gorgeous! I agree w/ Terr in that the bottom image looses some of it's color in the blossoms...but at the same time it makes the background more white (which I likes - maybe erase the effect away from the two blooms??
ReplyDeleteI have a flowering plumb tree, and even thought it is way too early for me to be seeing blossoms on it, these certainly look like the same thing. I think I like the first one for detail. but the second one has more of an artistic quality. It reminds me more of a Japanese painting, very soft and delicate.
ReplyDeleteWhatever kind of tree, it's pretty and I think I like the first one best.
ReplyDeleteWow! Doesn't matter what kind of blossom it is; it's beautiful and you captured it magnificently!
ReplyDeleteThe difference is subtle, but I think I like the top one better, The delicate flowers stand out better, In either case, the simplicity is lovely--it has the elements of a Japanese painting.
ReplyDeleteIt is subtle but there is more separation of the flowers from the background in the top one. It does look painterly, simply beautiful. I think plum, likey a purple leaf one
