Burgundy Pinks Photo

Photographer’s Note

Burgundy is renowned for its reds and whites, but for a limited period only, one can also enjoy the treat of some fine pinks :o) Simple yet sophisticated, these pinks can be admired across the region for a short season of just a week or two. This magnolia tree in a garden was in full bloom and stole my attention as I was cycling past. I could not resist stopping for a closer look and to take some photos.

Wherever you are, make sure you go out and enjoy the spring before it is over!

Hello Susanna,

Classic spring picture and the best time of the year to go out and shoot some images. Blue sky helps a lot here to bring out the colours in front...very nice.

Regards,

Henk

Hello Susanna,

Un gros plan plein de couleurs printanières. J'aime beaucoup l'avant plan mais j'aime également l'arrière plan flou avec cette fenêtre et surtout ce ciel polarisé qui permet de détacher l'avant plan avec panache.
Bien vu !

A+
